Default Greets from Idaho

Hello all,
New guy here, but I did already post a question. I've owned a 2000 Grand Caravan Sport since 2001. It's supremely comfortable on long trips, and generally reliable.
I'm a retired engineer living in northern Idaho USA. I'm accustomed to doing my own maintenance and repairs on my vehicles, but this is becoming more difficult with advancing age and increasing complexity of vehicles. The local joke with my friends is: a year ago, I tried to replace the starter in the van. "Three bolts and three wires--how hard can it be?"
In addition to the van, I own a Nissan pickup, a Tacoma pickup, and a Triumph GT6+ that I have almost completely restored.
Looking forward to learning from the forum.
Chuck

Welcome to DF!

You aren't kidding about new vehicles becoming more complicated..... That's some thing I really dislike. What's really wrong with a window switch that actually controls the window, rather than suggesting to some computer that you want the window to move???? (and the COMPUTER decides if it actually happens or not.... hhhmmm...)
