This appeals to someone here, right?
Looks pretty clean and 75,000 miles seems decent for the age.

I've owned two Astros over the years. I think they're one of the best appliances money could buy. The right size, just enough grunt to pull my open trailer, great for family travel. I got to 250,000 miles on both of them, too. I wonder how much this one will fetch?
My sister has one and I always love its mix of practicality and reliability. Nothing else like it out there.
Weren't they part of the original GRM holy trinity? Miata, Astro, Cherokee?
Buddy had a conversion Astro that he drove forever. The optics of the young single guy getting out of the aging conversion Astro were teetering between funny and creepy, but it was an awesome car for him for a variety of adventures.
In reply to eastsideTim :
Yep......at one point I had an NB, an Astro and a Grand Cherokee......never got a real Cherokee.
Hey, we’ll be at that auction.

We had one for ~ six years. Unfortunately, my wife absolutely hated it. I hated the idea of a minivan but as you mention, it did all the things well. It gave us a taste for traveling in a van though and was replaced with a Ford E350 that has taken us to all of the lower 48. I'm intrigued at the idea that they are creeping up in value. You could hardly give one away in 2010.
