Thanks you guys for posting the awesome pics of the Taraga. I wish iwas available in the U.S. What incredible design! I also an wondering if the engine is out front or amidship. Anybody know? I have a 91 Previa,130K mi (low miles!) Body is just starting to show some cancer. This is the best van I ever owned, it is a joy to drive and own....it just FEEEEELS Reliable! Did you know that a Previa has 3 more inches fo actual useable floorspace behind the front seats back to the rear hatch than an extended Ford (what a piece of shit!) Aerostar van?!! My wife and I just bought a new Windstar for her and I'll bet my Previa will outlast it. You should see all the inperfections in the paint! (They all have dust in the paint...every frickin one we looked at) We bought it because Ford Motor Co gave us $9150 for our '95 Taurus which had a recalled 3.8 Liter engine in it, plus 0.9% interest for 5 years, that's right 5 years. It was the only van that fit my long legged wife, plus the safety rating couldn't be argued with. I love my Toyota Previa! It is bulletproof!! KCzar
