Sold my XP

Sad but true...sold my 2000 XP EB A4WD today (had 93K miles and got $8500 for it)...our family (wife and 2 kids) needed a mini van (bought a 2007 Toyota Sienna Limited)...at least I still have my 03 Acura TL.

I will miss the XP and wanted to let everyone know how helpful this site was to me over the last 4 years in maintaining, servicing, and enjoying my truck...I always have enjoyed searching this site and reading the posts...I may have even helped one or two others as well along the way...

Thanks again and so long...maybe I will be back someday...but a Tundra/Tacoma sure looks good....in the meantime, I wonder if you can put a liftkit on an Acura TL??? (LOL)

David

Dang, sorry to hear you guys. Dad sold our '98 with about 145K trouble free miles. It was a beaut.

If you ever wanna test drive a hoss of a Tundra, I drive through Paducah whenever I go home.

It's happening alot. A coworker of mine traded his 04 Expy EB in on a Honda Odyssey. The Expy was in great shape with 65,000 miles, newer tires, 100,000 mile extended warranty and they only gave him $13,500.

GAS MILEAGE

If I did not tow 5000lbs, I would own a minivan as well. They are SO practical and most get respectbale mileages.

I owned 2 Astros and got 160k+ out of both of them and got 20MPG, and that is the biggest minivan!
