Aerostar replacement, none
When my 93 AWD started using water internally because of blown headgasket. We started looking at options. The Freestar is not AWD. The only AWD vehicle that will carry 7 or 8 people & have as much luggage space as the Aerostar is the Chevy Astro. We measured & looked. The Chrysler van is also & option but cost much more than the Astro. According to dealers this is the last year for the Astro passenger van & will only be sold as a cargo van. All the auto companies are moving back to the station wagon look, aka the old AMC Eagles. I had one. It seems like every car I have they stop making it. Maybe they will come out with an AWD drive Crown Victoria wagon.
I had a pair of them in the 2wd version. What goes around comes around. In about 10 or 15 years Aerostar II hybrid maybe born

The new Ford 500 will come in all wheel drive.
In size it's between a Clown Vic and a Taurus.
It looks like it will be a very nice car

I have not test drove one yet, but judging by the pics, it looks awefully carmped for a large mid size car. That might change once I get behind the wheel. To bad Ford can't make it a RWD with a 5.4 Boss engine and 5-speed manual tranny to combat the new Dodge Magnum. hhhmmm, or they could import the Australian Ford Falcon. As seen Here!
I would still prefer that they bring back the Aerostar for overall hauling capability that a car cannot do.

There must be a market for a reborn Star, there just is nothing like it available anymore. I love my Star, had an 89 3.0 shorty, but sold it at about 240,000 miles. bought a 94 EB ext with 4.0 and LOADED. Had 133,000 when bought less than a year ago, now has 153.000. It has a leather interior, so apparently it was an option on the EBs, mine has 4 captains chairs and 3rd seat makes a bed. Was a one owner and never smoked in! The owers sold it because with 4 growing kids they wanted more room.
