This car is my families only car. It is also driven mostly on the freeway. I live about 35 miles from work. So when modifying the car it will be for mostly for fuel mileage. We bought it from one of my wife's friends when our 2000 windstar started to go to down hill. We bought it with 160,000 miles on it. It now has 200,000 miles on it. I really like the car. It gets about 30mpg. I would like to see if the fuel mileage could be improved a little more. I just wish it was either a 4spd auto or a 5spd (i would prefer the manual) instead of the 3spd auto.
