Nothing beats an Astro

[@Salesman]

Such a perfect van for medium work type loads. Im going to pick one up to do final mile courier work.

[@workingshlub8861]

these vans are pretty reliable..ive got 180k on my 92 and no major issues and i work it everyday.

[@tomvessels8342]

Hi Wayne, your video's great. I'm a locksmith too from Denver, in my 2nd Astro. My first made it to 343k miles with no major money out of my pocket on repairs. Good luck with yours.

[@waynewinton]

+Tom Vessels Good to here! I had to upgrade to full size. Check out my new ride here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2qtoGh6pLBkjcU

[@u1t1matr1x8]

Great Video.I would suggest a First Aid Kit in the van. Also What kind of Cargo van that is AWD and not a passenger van would you suggest in the mid size van category? What van would you suggest in the Full Size Category?

[@waynewinton]

+U1T1MATR1X The Astro makes a pasanger van as well. They are the only manufacture of all wheel drive in the minnie van catagory. For full sizr the best van is the for e-350 or 250 HD . Ford only makes 2 wheel drive vans. if you need AWD Chevy express 250 is a good chioce.

[@MrEatuup]

my 2002 astro conversion has 96,000 mile & still havent give me no problem , just hope it will never get their. i dont drive much but would luv to.

[@jeffmoss26]

Nice setup Wayne. Gonna watch the whole series!

[@waynewinton]

Hey this is the old. Check out the new ride. I'm editing now but will have full video soon

[@jeffmoss26]

Yep I see that now, I watched all 9 of the new van last night :) My dad worked for a communications company here, at one time they had a whole fleet of Astro and Safari vans, the guys all seemed to like them. Once those vans were discontinued they started buying Chevy HHR panel wagons which hold about half the amount of stuff.

[@waynewinton]

Yea for what it is they do pretty good. This poor van was severely over loaded for its entire life and driving in hilly conditions and up steep snow covered driveways. 1 transmission and about 5 complete front ends later it's still going.

[@waynewinton]

***** note that even on the full size GMC and Chevrolet express models 2014 is the last year the will be offering an all wheel drive model. Vehicle manufacturers don't realize some of us work in the snow!

[@screamingdean5]

How much mileage is a Chevrolet Express Cargo Van good for? I ask because I'm looking at some used Chevrolet cargo vans right now. The brand new ones are expensive.

[@waynewinton]

+Screaming Dean at 180,000 plan on a tranny and transfercase, anything over 200,000 plan on a motor rebuild

[@screamingdean5]

+Wayne Winton It sounds as if I should buy a van that has less than 180,000 miles on it. Thanks for the info. I'll be sure to follow it.

[@jerryramos1054]

Started off about the van then quickly went on and on about your tools lol

[@johnjohn6548]

most people don't care what tools you have if they wanted to watch a video on a 2005 van.....

[@waynewinton]

then watch a different video

[@thermal1580]

I'm going to have to agree. I came for a review not your life story.

[@dansknivesandstuff4360]

In one way, I agree with you, but I certainly did enjoy seeing his setup.

[@Petertutinski]

A locksmith with a drilled out lock, how ironic :)

[@waynewinton]

Yes, It worked out quire well acctually. Never had to worry about loosing keys!
