Of course we like it! Very Happy

What are your expectations of it? If your hauling a lot of stuff or people all the time, then it's a great vehicle. If your just driving yourself to work, there are more fuel efficient choices.

If you don't mind 10-13 MPG, it would make a fine daily driver. I have had vans as daily drivers for years until very recently. Be prepared to de-lean-burn the motor (new ignition system and carb) but that isn't very difficult, really. Definitely post pictures!

well i should say as an after work driver , haul the folks around , putter around town and a little rode trip now & then , might take it too work once in awhile , i really want it because its a slant six ( love that motor ) & its in really good shape , i also have a 1976 Dodge B200 127wb 318 . 3spd auto that im redoing and don't hate me guy's i also have a 1996 Suzuki sidekick ( i have had for years ) to push down the rode when gas gets high like now , so i guess the 86 is just to have and add to the stable i just love the Dodge vans Smile also you think all i will get out of her is only 10-13 mpg ?? Crying or Very sad
