It does almost look like that van could roll again...for a few $.

         Kindas behind seeing this, sure glad you are okay. We have a 2005 Model of that minivan and it sure does good for us. Has  the Stow-a-way Seats and That is great, cause your seats are always with you and while they are up, there is great storage below them. As far as getting it back on the road, like some have wondered, it would depend alot on the frame up front and the driveline, since it is front wheel drive. May be messed up, in that respect. Got our 2005 model last year and have replaced the radiator, rear hatch lift cylinders, hood release lever and cable, right headlight assy (was cracked) and installed a trailer hitch, with a easily installed wiring harness. Good luck on finding another ride.

I have hardly ever had the seats in the back in it Bill as the car is used to haul furniture etc in my antique business but that stow and go would be nice to have.
  As for the totaled out declaration an air bag were deployed and the engine right now is almost touching the ground and has been moved over to the far side of the firewall. The frame, radiator etc up there is toast. Permanently stuck in a neutral.Lots of other major issues. Getting t-boned from the side sheared and moved everything over well. Car was probably only worth a few thousand before the incident. Should I put it on Craigslist and say "Ran before parked"      TC needs a little TLC

          Yeah, I imagined that it was pretty much destroyed in the front, the way it was hit. I mean, with the drivetrain all in the front, it is all right there and gonna get messed up. And, Yeah, I like your CraigsList comment is funny, I laughed at that.    Just tell em to get some of that wax that they show advertisement of, by waxing a car in the wrecking yarsd, to make it look better. That'll bring it around!

Glad you came out unscathed Eric. If you do get another minivan I have an Odyssey. .. It's great and you can fit a bike in it if needed.
