Yeah, I feel the same actually.. then you know where you stand with your vehicle once the engine is redone, but I need this to be reliable for my cripple mother. It seems to have been driven very softly. Its really in good looking shape visually.

Lots of coolant to crankcase leakage on the 2002's ?? REALLY? I'm just having a hard time believing this after Windstar's history.
