Our new van!

We drove up to Vancouver, WA yesterday as a family to check out a 2006 Nissan Quest. After a test drive, 100 questions, and a thorough look-over, we purchased it for $9100. It really is a super deal! Nathan drove it to Ikea (as I drove our rental van) and then I drove it home from Ikea. This is about two hours of total driving time both in town and on the interstate. We are both very impressed with how well it handles, how comfortable it is and how roomy the interior is. Here is the craigs list ad, http://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/993579969.html

I don't know how long it will stay up so here is the specs he had in his ad...
Very nice clean inside out NON smoking!!! 2006 Nissan Quest with only 45K miles with many options Special edition model!!! 4-Wheel ABS, 7 Pass. Seating , Air Conditioning (front and back!!!), Am/fm Stereo Radio , Brake Assist, parking assist,bumper sensors, 6 Disk Changer , Cruise Control , Driver Info Center display, Dual Air Bags (side airbags), Dual Zone AC , Outside Temp , Power Brakes , Power Door Locks , Power Mirrors , Power Sliding Door , Power Steering , Power Trunk Release power lift gate, Power Windows , Original SE Upgraded Sound system, Privacy Glass , Rear Air , Rear Audio Controls , Backup sensors , Rear Window Wiper , Roof Rack , Side Head Air Bags , Steering Wheel Audio Controls , Tachometer , Traction, Xenon HID Lights,

It has some paint scratches on the back bumper from "New York City driving". Nathan is going to get the oil changed, tires checked and an overall look-over this week. Then we will return the rental and have my new van to drive! The other driver's insurance is paying for a rental van for us. I simply cannot lift the boys into the truck without a lot of pain and they offered so I took it.
