 THIS VAN IS FOR SALE LOCALLY.  I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION EARLY IF A NEIGHBOR NABS IT FIRST.  


81K absurdly low original miles.  Kneeling wheelchair van. Fully automatic power ramp deployment, plus the van kneels low to the ground for easier ramp and curbside access.
Remote Keyless Entry.  10" lowered floor for maximum head room.

Removable pedestal captains seats - accommodate any powerchair seating arrangement, etc.
Dual Side-Entry Sliding Cargo Doors (makes passenger access, cargo loading, and tie-downs far easier). 

Great on Gas, Runs Great, Everything Works, Very Comfortable on long trips.
  
SMOKE FREE:  This van has NEVER been exposed to cigarette smoke.  Nope, nada.   
NO WIERD SMELLS, none.  I can't stand odors... so you won't have to either!

PROFESSIONALLY DETAILED:  This van was in use with a service dog (short haired Lab).  
Therefore, I just had the van Spotlessly Cleaned and DETAILED (inside & out) by our local dealership prior to this sale.  
I've had it detailed every year since I've owned it.  All years considered, it's purdy dang clean.

NEW WINDSHIELD:  The windshield was very pitted and recently took a bad ding from a rock... so, I had my dealership install a brand new one a week ago.

LIKE NEW TIRES:  Approx one season on 'em... far more than 70% tread, smooth ride, quiet!  The hub caps are somewhat tortured by city curbs (via its rural driver - Shhh, I know).  

BTW: Just installed its winter vinyl-floormat that protects the cargo floor from snow and wet power wheelchair tires.  The mat is screwed to the floor to seasonally protect carpet - Thus, the carpet underneath is in nearly mint condition.   Just realized I didn't have its winter-matt in place during the photo/video shoot.... arrrgh.  I will add photo's of the vinyl mat asap.

LOOK CLOSELY => NO RUST  (clean Wyoming roads) and its factory undercoating has it still looking fabulous inside and out  
NO ACCIDENTS - no floods, no no no!  No salted roads = No Ocean SALT either: unlike most mid-west and coastal vehicles. 

Body has earned a variety of nicks, dings and scratches from normal wear - Front left bumper has most significant visible scratch - photo's show all. 
There are NO cracked or broken plastics, lenzes, lights, latches, hinges, etc.
Upholstery (front / back) is in Tip Top Condition, NO STAINS, NO Rips NO Tears, NO broken down padding / springs.

NO accidents, No damage. Clean title. 

Why am I selling this?  My son bought this van for me for Christmas several years ago - and then he managed high school and early university years without a vehicle of his own.  I find myself driving too infrequently to justify this inequity any longer.  This van is going to magically turn into a kewl pickup truck for my long deserving youngun.  Yep, seriously... he is that guy, and he's that cool too.


Please email any questions or concerns. I will answer all inquiries immediately.
Able to show any day if you would like to come take a look and drive it before auction end.

Probably difficult to see - but, its right side is kneeling down in the prairie for a lower ramp slope = easier access.

OH I nearly forgot... Deep Cycle Cold EverStart Battery is pretty new too.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.

Government Ending Jeep Investigation

Tue, Jan 21 2014

The government is closing its investigation into older-model Jeeps with fuel tanks that could rupture and cause fires. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Friday it has "no reservations" with Chrysler Group's plans to recall the vehicles. The agency is expected to release a report on its investigation in a few weeks. The decision ends an unusually public struggle between Chrysler and NHTSA. The agency asked Chrysler to recall 2.7 million Jeeps last June, contending that their gas tanks - which are positioned behind the rear axle - were at risk of rupturing and catching fire in rear-end crashes. Involved were Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 1993 to 2004 model years and Liberty SUVs from 2002 to 2007. Chrysler initially refused to recall the vehicles. The company said the rate of fuel leaks and fires after crashes was similar to comparable vehicles that were sold during the time in question. It was the first time in two years that an automaker had refused NHTSA's request for a recall. Chrysler later agreed to recall 1.56 million of the Jeeps and install trailer hitches on them to help protect the gas tanks. The company sent notices to the remaining customers saying their vehicles were fine if they have factory-installed or Chrysler-made trailer hitches. NHTSA said late Friday that it has been in close contact with Chrysler and will monitor the recall as it continues. Chrysler has told customers that it will start installing the hitches soon. "Consumers should have their vehicles serviced promptly once they receive final notification from Chrysler,"NHTSA said in a statement. In its own statement Friday, Chrysler said, "We share NHTSA's commitment to safety." NHTSA's outgoing chief, David Strickland, told The Associated Press in an interview last month that Chrysler had convinced NHTSA that the Jeeps were no more dangerous than similar vehicles sold at that time. "Those vehicles performed at a rate similar to their peers. That is the keystone analysis as to whether something poses an unreasonable risk to safety," Strickland said. Friday was Strickland's last day at NHTSA. He is joining Venable, a law firm. NHTSA began investigating the Jeeps at the request of the Center for Auto Safety, a Washington-based advocacy group. "It is tragic that NHTSA approved Chrysler's sham trailer hitch recall for Jeeps that explode in rear impacts," the Center for Auto Safety's director, Clarence Ditlow, said Friday.

Has Dodge stepped in it again with Scat Pack lawsuit?

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

Lawsuits are an unfortunate part of doing business in just about any industry, so the latest complaint filed by a California-based aftermarket firm against Chrysler would seem to be nothing more than business as usual. But this isn't the first time the two companies have sparred over this particular issue.
According to a report from Automotive News, the dispute revolves around the Scat Pack name that Chrysler first offered on the Charger, Coronet, Dart and Super Bee starting in 1968. Scat Enterprises, a manufacturer of crankshafts and other components for Dodges and other vehicles, sued Chrysler for using its name. A few years later the Scat Pack disappeared from the Dodge catalog.
Fast forward to August 2013 when Chrysler applied to register the Scat Pack name anew. The US Patent and Trademark Office turned down Chrysler's application, but the automaker proceeded anyway, unveiling new Scat Packs for the Challenger, Charger and Dart at last year's SEMA show.
