ok there the odessey. Are the new ones shit? No i cant mod it. It will be my only car until shuiend blesses me with my flossy whip
I guess I should get it back together. I need to order 2 more pipes for IC and then figure out the intake and filter for the turbo. But I also have something special for you. A nice 1996 E-350 extended van. Already has tinted windows to give off the creep vibe. Also it has no brakes, but those are totally not required for you life style, because we all know you don't slow down for nothing. It has working cruise control, not sure if AC works. Has the awesome tow package and gets a nice 8mpg when towing a miata around. New front shocks with less then 500 miles on them. I don't think the side or rear doors open from the outside, so no worry about anyone stealing your band equipment. The best part is, you can have it for $1 if you want it. Attachment 230530 |

It's a 2007 EX-L (no DVD or nav), with 98K miles. We bought it new in 2007. Selling it because my wife wanted a new car, she's got a 2016 CX-9 now.
Exterior is a little beat up (damage on both bumper covers, some door dings & scratches), mechanically it's in great shape. Interior cleaned up well and is not too bad except for the upholstery coming off the back of the passenger seat. It'll probably go back on with some hog rings/zip ties, but I've never gotten around to messing with it. The Odyssey had transmission problems from day 1, originally they used the Accord tranny and it wasn't really up to hauling the extra weight around. Somewhere around 2005 it got the Ridgeline tranny instead, and that basically fixed the problem. Our got a transmission flush every 30K, just from paranoia. Photos here: no title I posted it on CL asking $8500 as a starting point, but I'd take $7K. --Ian pm'd yuz |

The harder i push on the pole the more it slows. |
toyota previas are indestructible as well. hard to find any with under 200k miles though.

My neighbor's Toyota Sienna has been nothing but minor problems from the start, and most of them cost an arm and a leg. Crap like auto side door mechanisms failing. Dealer wants big bucks to fix. Parts are expensive, too.
I find it hard to believe it's a Toyota, because it is not very reliable, although it always runs. |
How far along is she?

i was gonna say... that was a helluva deal on that van. Nice go.

I meant SLAB CITY for valentines weekend. Old van will kablooie there, then.
Odyssey van is quite decent and Codrus is an upstanding dude. J35A6 motor is quite decent actually, the power comes in handy above 80mph :D Was an odd experience to drive a van in the rain that doesn't leak. Am gonna do some "mods" to it actually- BT radio, window tint annnnd that'll do. That'll do. |
