so the reverse on my ford windstar is crapping out, and after putting over 2k into it in the past 7 months, i'm done. i only paid 2700 for it, and i still have more work to do to it. (a/c, reverse, couple small things)
so, my budget is about 8000 ish, or 150/mo (i have NO idea what i can expect to get in trade or private sale from the windstar. cars.com said 1600 given the poor condition)
i'm thinking to go with a honda, toyota or kia, but i dont really know much about what model years to look for or stay away from. inventory in my area seems to be a 2007 Chrysler and a 2003 honda are about the same price. there seems to be vans in all price ranges in all model years available, so finding what i end up deciding shouldnt be an issue, although price might be (i.e a 2004 honda is 9000)
we currently have radians, and i'd like to keep them, only because hubby is resistant to getting a new van to begin with, new carseats might push him over the edge LOL
i'm so lost.
