Seems like future will be spacious, aerodynamic and trans inclusive.
Ah the GM U-Body. It’s good looking trash, but it’s still trash.
Based on the then-problematic W-Body, it didn’t drive well, lacked a fourth door, had front suspension that got misaligned if you went over a speedbump and ate head gaskets for breakfast, which was a challenge because almost every issue with the powertrain or accessory belt stuff, and there were lots, was an engine-out repair job.
It made the Astro look good, which was not easy. Only the Toyota Van (the HiAce and Previa) were more challenging, and at least they were reliable.
The Caravan, exploding transmission and all, was a better car.
Interestingly, this same chassis got a lot less sexy as the years went on. GM butched it up for the SUV craze with the Montana/Uplander, and the shorty version was the basis for the Aztek.
Fuck I want this style back. It’s like a Lamborghini Diablo minivan
Just don’t put anything on the dashboard.
I had a Hot Wheels of this a really long time ago, it was my favourite one
like this, but in red
My grandpa hat one. Great car, horrible gas guzzler.
