Welcome!
Oh look, another 6-lug van with that color. I swear they only used that one color of paint after 2003.
I think we're up to double-digits on those now, mine included.

Well, if my '03 color is too common how about a base cargo in ubiquitous white? Meet my '04 "Daily Bread"(carpenter by trade). It's got a 2" lift w/ 235/70r16 Kelly ATRs, Monroe coil over shocks in the rear and a Hellwig sway bar. Fully loaded construction complement the handling is decent. Please note in this image that most of my heavy gear is elsewhere, hence the slightly raked stance.
Purchased in Phoenix and shipped to my home on Kauai in early 2012 thus beginning a personal Astro affair.

Just because it's 109* all week with a respite of 108 this weekend?
Luv the lifted cargo!
