Our New Van

by Derek—2005.03.13 @ 1143

We've reached that point in our lives when we needed to get a larger, more economical vehicle. Melissa is due in May and our Rodeo will not accomodate three car seats. We've been searching and researching for some time and concluded that a mini-van was the best choice. We opted for the Dodge Grand Caravan and found one for sale in Maryland that fit the bill.

1999 Dodge Grand Caravan SE

This 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan was well taken care of and had relatively low miles (59,600) and was still with the original owner. On Saturday, we took the family up to Maryland to pick up the van. On the way up, Elise wanted to know if she could ask for the van. True to here word, just before we left the previous owners' home, Elise asked, "Can we have your van?" It was a precious moment.

Now the next adventure is to get the car registered and insured. Since we are part of the military, we are opting to register the van in Utah. It will mean doing some extra paper work and sending things via mail, but hopefully it will reduce some headaches in the future.
