#1972 of 4469 Another by bob57 May 28, 2002 (8:50 am)
I was working a soccer tournament this weekend and saw a (I thought) new sand colored '02 MPV pull in beside my '01. As I got closer I saw that it was an '01 but looked like it was showroom new. Suspecting it was just purchased I asked the driver how she liked her new MPV. "New"? she said, "It's got 36,000 miles and not even a year old yet. I love this thing - zero problems".   About colors; Toyota had a special order color that the salesman said was "Ice blue". Now that would be nice too - Maybe call it "Java/Winter Blues" or something. That sounds like a song title... )

Maybe she's using Zaino or something ;-p   Don't know what's up with Java ... he hasn't been the same since returning from Hawaii. Suppose I can understand, leaving paradise would be hard for me too ....

No, no, Java took a vacation and returned to Paradise Steve Host SUVs, Vans and Aftermarket & Accessories Message Boards

I'm sure you're right. We all feel sorry for him because he lives in AK, but I think he's got us all fooled!   <content> I'm starting to get an annoying dash rattle under the speedo. My hand still hurts - but it persuaded the rattle to be quiet, at least for now ;(

You should feel sorry for me, lol. It's pure torture. The only truly enjoyable item is sending cold weather to that SMALL Southern state that rythms with nexus. Nothing to do here but sit on my deck and sip cold ones, fish, plan to fish and fish some more. That reminds me, I need to go fishing.   I tell ya, MochaVan has been so handy lately! I put in laminate floors (in the HOUSE not the van... I had to clarify for you characters) this past week, and I couldn't have done the project w/out the great cargo space of the MPV. Man, that thing sucks up stuff. OSB, no problem (mostly). 8ft trim and molding? Bring it. 600lbs of planks? Fahgietabaahhtit! Then, the youngest java-runt had a birthday and I just had to get her this battery powered VW, and the requisite bazillion helium balloons. Of course, it couldn't fit in the Volvo, but no problemo in MochaVan.   Beach, quit pounding the dashboard of your van, others might stare.   /j

heh, a Pergo minivan sounds kinda neat-o. Very 60's... Steve Host SUVs, Vans and Aftermarket & Accessories Message Boards

That would be the "Ploody" option on the MPV. Comes with a surfboard rack.   /j
#1979 of 4469 Loose Valence by excalibur1993 May 28, 2002 (5:47 pm)
Just bought a new 2002 MPV ES. Van is great all around. Only one annoying thing though...   There is a plastic "valence" under the steering wheel thats about 12" X 12" that is removeable. It has "come loose" about 10 times in one week. I keep snapping it back in place. Come back later and it is loose again. I don't want to super glue this thing in place but its such a minor problem I hate to drag it to the dealer.   Any similar experiences / solutions?

Excalibur, I am not sure what piece are you talking about. I don't see anything 12"x12" under the steering wheel. Nevertheless, if it is coming loose you should tell a dealer while you changing oil. It should be no big deal to fix it.   MB
#1981 of 4469 Excalibur & Java by bob57 May 29, 2002 (9:21 pm)
I see the item Excalibur is talking about - it's the cover directly under the steering column held on by clips - I think it's clips by feel only - didn't want to crawl under and spill my martini... Yes - take it to the dealer.   JAVA: ah...you makin' fun of us Texas boys again? Gonna send you a bayou catfish so you know what a real fish looks like...maybe one of them gators in the backyard - as soon as I find my hound dog....
