Here is a GMC Safari AWD. It could have been had with RWD and a manual. Is it odd that I want to find that or a Chevy Astro AWD and lift it for shenanigans?

There are also Econoline 4wd vans
It’d perform like a lifted ford truck in terms of shenanigans

There are also also AWD Aerostars.
Basically a Ranger-based setup, just like the Astro has some DNA in common with an S10.

But those were done by Quigley, weren’t they? Where they took an E-150/250 and dropped the F-Series running gear underneath it (with custom length driveshafts)?
The Astro was done by GM at the factory. Or is there a Ford Econoline that I’m not aware of?

I much prefer this style lifted 4x4 van.
In the end, they’re all a bitch to work on because tiny hood.

Wasn’t that the one with the Dana TC28?

Seemingly, yes.

We had one in our family for about 10 years, I hate it.

I like those two, and also the mazda 4x4 mpv
Still want one but rust got to them before I had a chance

I hate aerostars just as much as i hate tempos and topaz..

I would have thought Tempos had more mechanically to hate. It’s true Aerostars are so malaisey-80s they hurt, visually.

Never knew about the manual option. Would be fun for an scca rallycross.

I’m sure Logansteno could donate an older Safari to the cause!

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Sorry to piss in your cheerios, but IMO, the Aerostar was the worst minivan of all time.
