Phil,

Did you ever get the engine overhauled during the 270K miles?

Re: Post your Baby's Mileage, Year, Engine

I bought both used. The transmission on the first one was replaced with a new one around 350,000kilos. The other one has never run so I don't know. Engine on first one runs like new! I still use it while my son uses my newer Montana.
So to answer your question, I don't know if there were any engine overhauls done on either.

Re: Post your Baby's Mileage, Year, Engine

Mine is a 3800 V6, '95. It's done aprox 100kmiles, or 160000 km. Now used as a second car for the wife. But still runs strong with low maintenance effort.
Full leather, electric sliding door, overhead console, new sensatrac shocks and the six seat setup make it my all-time favorit family mover. (Till now of course..

Re: Post your Baby's Mileage, Year, Engine

1994 3800 3.8L

She's RED

106,152 miles.

Not too bad for a 94.

Does need a new water pump soon.

Rust's not too bad yet.

Turned it on last week and brought it up to 5500rpm. Never been that high but ran fine. (NO! It was parked. I would never force that on her! Ever!)

Re: Post your Baby's Mileage, Year, Engine

Hi. I've got a '93 Transport that's been in my family since new. it's a 3800 with 367000 kms or 228K miles. It's been a daily driver since new and has never had any issues with the powertrain. The only parts replaced have been some accesory components like the alternator or starter, but that's it. I'm now starting to drive it to work 100km a day or 60 miles, so the mileage should really climb quickly. I'm hoping to get it to 400K before she retires. It still even looks really good. That plastic body really helps here in Canada.

Re: Post your Baby's Mileage, Year, Engine

@Moseby: I know exactly what you mean with the plastic body lasting the harsh north. I have also had mine in the family for the entire life of the van,and no major issues. I know you can get up to 400k easily in this van!

Re: Post your Baby's Mileage, Year, Engine

New addition to the pack:

White '91 Pontiac Trans Sport with 152.000 miles on a 3.1 TBI engine.

Runs like a charm (we bought it initially for parts and a measly 1300 Euro's then decided it's too good to part. Now it runs better than the first (blue) '92 TS which still has "sitting" issues since it was a recreational vehicle. Plus I like the white color better on this machine.
