Dan Gets a Minivan (Hardcover)


Dan Gets a Minivan (Hardcover)


$32.91


In the bestselling and beloved tradition of Dave Barry, a coming-of-middle-age tale by Thurber finalist Dan Zevin, master of “Seinfeld-ian nothingness” (Time) about a man’s inevitable transition into mid-life and fatherhood.The least hip citizen of Brooklyn, Dan Zevin has a working wife, two small children, a mother who visits each week to “help,” and an obese Labrador mutt who prefers being driven rather than walked. How he got to this point is a bit of a blur. There was a wedding, and then there was a puppy. A home was purchased in New England. A wife was promoted and transferred to New York. A townhouse. A new baby boy. A new baby girl. A stay-at-home dad was born. A prescription for Xanax was filled. Grey hairs appeared, grey hairs fell out. Six years passed in six seconds. And then came the minivan.Not just a daddy book, Dan Gets a Minivan is about a guy who happens to be a dad. Acclimating to adulthood has never been his strong suit, and this slice-of-midlife story chronicles the whole hilarious journey—from instituting date night to joining Costco; from touring Disneyland to recovering from knee surgery; from losing ambition to gaining perspective. Where it’s all heading is anyone’s guess, but, for Dan, suburbia’s calling—and his minivan has GPS.

 Ford Freestar


Ford Freestar


$45


The Ford Freestar is a minivan that was manufactured by the Ford Motor Company from 2004 until November 2006. It replaced the Ford Windstar for the 2004 model year. The name change accommodated Ford’s strategy to rename all their cars to words beginning in F. The Freestar and its twin, the Mercury Monterey, were built in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. The Freestar can accommodate up to seven passengers and features an electronically controlled 4- speed automatic transmission as part of the van’s standard equipment. Five trim levels were available: base, SE, Sport, SEL, and Limited. In the United States, the Freestar was available with two different gasoline-powered V6 engines. The smaller 3.9 L (available only in the United States) develop a maximum power of 193 hp (144 kW) at 4500 rpm and 240 lb•ft (325 N•m) of torque at 3750 rpm, while the larger 4.2 L produces 201 hp (150 kW) at 4,250 rpm and 263 lb•ft (357 N•m) of torque at 3650 rpm. While the smaller engine came on the base model in the United States, the larger 4.2 L engine is standard on all models in Canada and Mexico.

 Ford Galaxie


Ford Galaxie


$67


Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Ford Galaxie was a full-size car built in the United States by the Ford Motor Company for model years 1959 through 1974. The name was used for the top models in Ford’s full-size range from 1959 until 1961. In 1962, all full-size Fords wore the Galaxie badge, with “500″ and “500/XL” denoting the higher series. 1965 saw the introduction of the Galaxie 500/LTD, followed by Galaxie 500 7-Litre in 1966. The Galaxie 500 part was dropped from the LTD in 1966, and from the XL in 1967, however the basic series structuring levels were maintained. The “regular” Galaxie 500 continued below the LTD as Ford’s mid-level full-size model from 1965 until its demise at the end of the 1974 model year. The Galaxie was the high volume counterpart to the Chevrolet Impala. Some Galaxies were high-performance, racing specification machines, a larger forebear to the muscle car era. Others were plain family sedans. A version of the car was also produced in Brazil under the names Galaxie 500, LTD and Landau from 1967 to 1983. The similarly named Ford Galaxy is a large car/minivan available in the European market. The vehicle’s name is taken from the original Ford Galaxie.

 Ford Windstar


Ford Windstar


$45


The Ford Windstar is a minivan that was produced and sold by the Ford Motor Company from March 1994 (for the 1995 model year) to 2003. This front-wheel drive minivan would eventually replace Ford’s aging rear-wheel drive Aerostar minivan. The two ran concurrently for three model years until the Aerostar’s demise in 1997. For the 2004 model year, it was replaced by the Freestar. All Windstars were built in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. Unlike most Fords, the Windstar did not have a similar Mercury vehicle “twin”, and was completely unrelated to the Mercury Villager (although the Windstar’s successor the Ford Freestar did have a twin, the Mercury Monterey).

 Heist!: The $17 Million Loomis Fargo Theft


Heist!: The $17 Million Loomis Fargo Theft


$5.73


On October 5, 1997, FBI agents gathered at the Loomis, Fargo & Co. warehouse in Charlotte, North Carolina, to watch a security videotape of a man loading stacks of cash into a pushcart and wheeling them from the vault. The cart held about $2 million, and the thief made multiple trips. They already knew who he was-David Ghantt, a Loomis Fargo employee. And the company soon calculated how much was missing–$17 million. But the FBI had scant clues as to where Ghantt had fled and who might have helped him. As the people of the Carolinas would soon learn, discretion was not the hallmark of the heist’s perpetrators. Word trickled in to the FBI that Ghantt had a romantic interest in a former coworker, Kelly Campbell, who one day visited a Toyota dealership to purchase a minivan with twenty-dollar bills. Accompanying her was Steve Chambers, who, though unemployed, had recently moved from his mobile home into a $635,000 mansion. A wiretap of Steve’s phone later unearthed a plot to murder David Ghantt, who was hiding in Mexico. When the FBI arrested those involved in the heist and its aftermath, the public frenzy began. People were enthralled by the reckless extravagance, poor judgment, and peculiar taste of the perpetrators-through stories of a $43,000 diamond ring, breast implants, a faux tiger-skin stair runner, and a wooden Indian, all purchased with the stolen money.Heist! is the account of an unlikely crime destined to be remembered less for its sophistication than for its colorful cast of true-life characters. The theft has been featured on ABC’s 20/20, America’s Most Wanted, and the Today show and was the subject of the Discovery Channel’sUnperfect Crime.

 Lancia Megagamma


Lancia Megagamma


$44


High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Lancia Megagamma minivan is a concept car designed by Italdesign in 1978 and introduced the same year at the Turin Motor Show. It can be seen as the forerunner of modern MPVs.[4][5] The car never reached production phase, because it was seen as a too risky and low selling model by Lancia’s parent company Fiat and its CEO Umberto Agnelli. This concept vehicle addressed the needs of families, with a roomy cabin in a compact package. The Nissan Prairie (1981) was the first modern production MPV following the Megagamma idea, later followed by models like the Renault Espace, Honda Shuttle, Toyota Sprinter Caribbean, Dodge Caravan, Plymouth Voyager, Renault Scenic and Volkswagen Touran. Lancia’s own MPVs are the Zeta and current Phedra. The Megagamma has a Lancia SOHC 2.5 litre flat-4 engine equipped with Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection producing 140 PS (100 kW; 140 hp) at 5400 rpm and 209 newton metres (154 ft•lbf) at 3000 rpm of torque. It was a front engined, front-wheel drive vehicle based on the Lancia Gamma platform.

 Riding the Roller Coaster: A History of the Chrysler Corporation


Riding the Roller Coaster: A History of the Chrysler Corporation


$36.95


The first comprehensive history of the Chrysler Corporation, this book is intended for readers interested in the history of automobiles and of American business, and for fans and critics of Chrysler’s products. From the Chrysler Six of 1924, to the front-wheel-drive vehicles of the 70s and 80s, to the minivan, Chrysler boasts an impressive list of technological firsts. But even though the company has catered well to a variety of consumers, it has come to the brink of financial ruin more than once in its seventy-five-year history. How Chrysler achieved monumental success and then managed colossal failure and sharp recovery is explained in Riding the Roller Coaster, a lively, unprecedented look at a major force in the American automobile industry since 1925. Charles Hyde tells the intriguing story behind Chrysler–its products, people, and performance over time–with particular focus on the company’s management. He offers a lens through which the reader can view the U.S. auto industry from the perspective of the smallest of the automakers who, along with Ford and General Motors, make up the Big Three. The book covers Walter P. Chrysler’s life and automotive career before 1925, when he founded the Chrysler Corporation, and traces the company’s history to 1998, when it merged with Daimler-Benz. Chrysler made a late entrance into the industry in 1925 when it emerged from Chalmers and Maxwell, and further grew when it absorbed Dodge Brothers and American Motors Corporation. The author follows this journey, explaining the company’s leadership in automotive engineering, its styling successes and failures, its changing management, and its activities from auto racing to defense production toreal estate. Throughout, the colorful personalities of its leaders–including Chrysler himself and Lee lacocca–emerge as strong forces in the company’s development, imparting a risk-taking mentality that gave the company its verve.

Does Mercury sell a Minivan?

And If so, does some other company sell the same item under a different name?

Unfortunately not.
We stopped in ’06.
I just checked our internal and the public sites and we do not list a mini-van.

We have switched to the “cross over” vehicle – the Sable X that is due out later this year.

Basically, we got our butts handed to us by Chrysler and Honda. We don’t have the money to develop and new minivan that can compete, so we are going in a different direction, hoping that is where the customers are going.

I know a lot of people who love the cavernous space and sliding doors of a mini-van, so I don’t know that it is a great idea. However, the sales numbers for minivans is falling dramatically (even for Chrysler), so the “forecasters” must be reading those tea leaves….
