yeah, that looks about right, couple thousand less than what they asking for the one I'm looking at and a few thousand more kms. If I can get the one I"m looking at for $15,500-16,000 out the door, I think it will be pretty good. Maybe not the best deal, but a pretty good deal, and I didn't have

I would expect about 20k - 30k kilometres (I think you multiply by .62 to get back down to miles). Check out www.trader.ca you should find LOTS. Or at least there were when I was shopping a couple of months ago. Mac on 1/7/09 0:51, E M at pokieba...@gmail.com wrote: > What kind of miles or kms

All in all, I have been favorably impressed with the 1999 and 2000 Dog grand caravans we have had. It is a definite pain to change the back plugs and wires, but you only need to do that 0 to 2 times per lifetime of the van. You can buy a pretty decent Dodge for $3000 as long as you don't care
