This model is considered the most trouble-free cargo van by US drivers based on years of exploitation, and because of its simplicity, which makes this vehicle even more reliable. The suspension is practically indestructible and is preferable for long trips for its unshakable monumentality (akin to Suburbans ).

The car is distinguished by good build quality and reliability, and its engine is considered one of the most economical with its impressive 14-17 MPG.
