Retained accessory power and additional warning bells are to this old van recorded for 2000. Also new are automatic headlights with a Flash-to-pass function, battery protection and a tow / haul tailoring mode for the transmission. The ABS, engine and exhaust system were improved, and a 27-gallon tank is standard.
Models that were for a while deliver even more impressive value - and bravery. This applies to the long-lived Astro van, a staple in the Chevy lineup since 1985. This busy cargo tug, sporting a conventionally angular form, has – if ever – with age matured.
No, you will receive not the curved contours or the ergonomics of a Ford Wind star or Chevy venture. What you purchase is a very handy heavy vehicle, equipped; almost every company can be adapted, trimmed in almost everyone, as you like. Depending on the configuration, Astro can drag as much as three tons.
Out there on the road, laden with cargo, is where the Astro shows its true value. Greater than its competitors likely Astro are admittedly more truck-like in the temperament, but deliver a comfortable Highway ride with competent handling. The seats are a little short, but comfortable. Unfortunately fall too small front leg room the comfort of a hack, especially after long stints behind the wheel. A 190 HP, 4, 3-litre V6 is standard, where benefit through a soft-shifting four-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission to the rear wheels to power.
Dual airbags as also ABS brakes are standard. You will receive only a body of choice: the advanced version length. The lower priced rear-wheel drive is the ticket for hauling much weight. All wheel drive costs more and delivers improved wet pavement traction, but sucking more fuel along the route.
For the year 2000, Chevy has improvements to the engine, anti-lock braking system, and exhaust system in the interests of the Astro quieter and more reliable. A plastic fuel tank is new, and Astro is now restrained with power accessories, and battery protection. A tow / haul mode on the transmission lasts longer, when Astro is speeds laden with cargo or a trailer. Headlights, which are automatically activated in low light situations, were added, along with a Flash-to-pass function for those interested in the incitement to road rage. Additional warnings glockenspiel reminds the driver when the key in the ignition have been left, among other things, protection and lockout comes with power door locks this year.
Solid and rich in content, Astro remain tempting - when date - decisions. This is a van, the large-van capacity and versatility can boast.
