Howdy,

So not 100% on topic, but I'll probably tow our enclosed trailer with the camaro in it with whatever we get... :-)

I'm starting to get into the market for a full size passenger van. I'd like 3/4 or 1 ton, able to tow our 24' enclosed trailer if it needs to, but will mostly be a run around town vehicle. I care about gas mileage only after stuff like room, ability to tow, reliability, price, etc. It won't get that many miles on it.

I've been figuring 2000+, with the 6.0 and 4l80e... Does that sound right? Has that been available since 2000?

Anything I particularly want or should particularly stay away from in the 3/4 and 1 ton chevy vans?

Thanks!

Mark

I had Lowes cut a key once and in order to work the ignition I had to pull the key back out by a 16th or so to work. I think it had something to do with the big rubber boot on the original key that didn't let it sit in the cutter right.
