I can’t escape this fuckin van.
I finally convinced my mom to buy a new car after having her astro for 23 years.
Since then I have seen them everywhere. They are following me, I swear.

My father had one and I swear to you it outlasted it’s lifetime. My father beat the living shit out of it. Never changed the tires, several accidents, 0 maintenance. Built like a tank.
My dad had a shitbox Astro too, thing would not die and he wouldn’t get rid of something that still worked. Used to ride around in it on country roads in upstate NY with the side door wide open, stoned to the bone. It felt illegal and dangerous, but cool - literally and figuratively.
I hated everything about that van. Do maintenance? Open that little hub inside. Wanna check something? Open the hub inside. The hood was useless.
I’ve seen the AWD version of this get pretty heavily modified for drag racing. It’s pretty sweet to see a mini van that down sports cars!
Stop I can only get so erect
Parents had one of these and we all collectively hated it. But it stood the test of time for 20+ years. This post brings back memories lol

Quite possibly the greatest vehicle of all time. The only one even close in the running is the Saturn V rocket.
