1990 Chevrolet Astro CL 3dr Minivan AWD
I bought my Astro new off the lot with 40 miles on it. I now have over 221,000
miles on it. I have traveled all over the U.S. in my van, I pull a 1968, 16ft
camper with it, it takes me up to the ski resorts in the winter and drives me
on the beach at the ocean. I love my van. Even if I get something else to
drive I plan to keep my little van.
A very reliable vehicle

1990 Chevrolet Astro 3dr Minivan AWD
I have 127,000 miles on my 1990 Astro
van and have had no major trouble with
it other than a few of the door locks
going bad. It's very reliable and it's
wonderful how well it gets around in
the winter time! I'm never afraid to go
out on the snowy roads here in NW Pa.
My in-laws have 300 thousand miles on
theirs and still don't hesitate to
drive it cross country!

1990 Chevrolet Astro LT 3dr Ext Minivan
I have owned my Astro for 12+ years and
loved every minute of it. It has taken
trips from Canada to Florida and all
points in between. I used it as a
cargo van, loading it over its maximum
capacity to mounting the seats and
carrying passengers. I have also gone
on numerous camping trips with my
Astro. This is truly the best Mini Van
every built! Thank-you General … Motors
for building a Great Mini Van, I have
since purchased a 2001 GMC Safari and
now reliving my experiences with my new
found love. Keep up the good work and
Long Live the Astro / Safari's
