    I don't understand how TCL hates on anything and everything stance/stretch/poke etc. and then when a minivan gets the same treatment they fawn over it

    anyway I can appreciate the quality of work and detail, but I just don't understand it personally; i guess thats why you're you and I am not

    Your kinda doing the same Thing tho. Just read the thread, there's been plenty of hating on the van. love it or hate it, I built it for me and I think it's the bees knees.

    So I bet you see Previa's like this everyday? No? That is why alot of people are "fawning" all over this car. You also answered your own question. It in Bold.

    My Dad is a Hot Rodder/Street Rodder. He always has the best answer for me when we talk about cars. "Anything looks cool when lowered" and "they just dont get it" it doesnt bother him that some people will look at his Street Rod and think he F'ed up a 38 Chevy, "they just dont get it" he'll say.

    Hey OP bottom line its a Previa that is Done Right! but I am sure you know that.

    I found a sweet S/C Previa with 57,000 original miles. I'm so tempted but would feel way too guilty using it in the snow.

    Shawn, ignore all the ass**** out there that are givin' you grief about your Toyota. They are either stupid, jealous or both......

    Couple of quick qustions. I just bought a '96 2wd S/C. I would like to spend some money on it but need some advice on some things. How available are you to answer questions and help a fellow Previa owner out?????

    Thanx in advance and keep on rockin' with your Previa.

    <--- Fellow Previa owner here

    Love the van. Always have and always will. You definitely push the limits!

    Pretty sure we have friends in common (Travy and such?), there is another local guy that does phenomenal installs, does side work often- Sam, his user name on here is wishuhadmyvw or something similar. I can send you his facebook if you are looking.

    LOVE the Previa.
