Did my normal 50 min price 650 max price sort and filtered to owners only, man its thin.

But holy cow did mid 2000's GM vans with bad trans's go down in price. LS4's are getting cheap and some of these vans came AWD. Anybody else want 300hp AWD vans? Ls4 4l65e-HD, aztek 3400 AWD 4l60e drop box bolts right to the fwd version. Bam!

Unpopular opinion- Vans are better than these garbage FWD CUV's. Id take box on wheels that can hold a couch for $500 Alex.

Their asking price is 100 buxx more than what the junkyard pays

I am in full favor of the minivan. We had a Kia Sedona and yeah it was dorky and yeah it was a Korean piece of crap, but damn was it comfortable and useful. It comfortably seated 7, had a low floor and sliding doors, had 244 HP, and could haul a ton of sh*t. Seats folded flat and could be removed in 5 minutes, and you could lay a 4x8 sheet of plywood flat and stack them, put bikes in it, we even put a tarp down a couple times and hauled mulch. That thing took a beating.

The crossover is dorky and tries to look cool. The minivan is unapologetic about it's dorkiness.

Wellston, OK
I guess im just surprised that Craigslist is still used. I've been using Facebook Marketplace for a while and never had an issue. Way less tire kicking and scamming than Craigslist.

Total opposite of my experiences.

CL has it's flakes, but actually has buyers and sellers, FB has complete idiots that cannot do more than push the "is this available" button, or give half answers, and sometimes it's not even to a question that was asked.

YMMV, obviously

On CL I have noticed people are posting their cars in the parts section with the same add they had in the car sections.

I'm ok with paying $5 to post a car for sale ad.

I just hope they put some of that money into the site...like a decent search engine for outside your area.
