Current van, drove 60,000 + miles in the last 3 years,
no breakdowns, now has over 211,000 miles on it.

I'd load up the fridge, the luggage, the family and
the dog and go anywhere in it right now.

The list and the web don't provide a representative
cross-section of reliability info, problems and
repairs get the majority of press. Not many people
post when their van is running great except in the
occasional trip report you see on-line.
