  Unfulfilled dream - 1999 GMC Safari
  By Ed Garrity - July 23 - 12:54 am

  I paid $16K for a 2 year old van with 37K miles. In 7/05 it has 108K, current value About $5.3K. Ive enjoyed the van and the ride. Its comfortable for driver. Not enough foot room for passengers. I liked the way it handled and drove. Repair costs have been about $1K a year in addition to regular maintenance. Costs of repair have been expensive. Have had excellent service from Cooper extra wide, tires. I have replaced the electric window motors on both sides of the van. AC is a problem, 2 computers replaced. Body and upholstery show almost no wear.
