Hello from Washington

My introduction is mostly about my companion; in a year, I will have owned this van longer than my marriage lasted!

The Minivan of Justice (1992 Aerostar XLT 4.0/AWD) is over 300,000 miles.

I've replaced the transmission and lots of other parts; I'd like to replace the engine soon.

I'm tempted to put it out of my misery, but every time I make the evaluation, another $1000 (like today) is easier than picking up a new vehicle.
