Someone is lying

Actually I have very fond memories of my family’s old Aerostar.

This is my desktop at work. I like to let my co-workers know I’ve still got a dream I’m working towards
Lofty goals, but you don’t choose the Aerostar. The Aerostar chooses you.

What a beaut. Always thought they kinda looked like a sperm without a tail.

This is what peak masculinity would drive every day.

drives around in a minivan.
Besides there being no 1998 Aerostar, this is one of the early models. The badges on the front fenders went away after the first few model years, and the later ones have composite headlights rather than the sealed beams.
Mom, can we get a shuttle craft?
No honey, we have a shuttle craft at home.
The shuttle craft at home…
I think we went through 3 trannys on one within the warranty period… Great ride with sliding windows and sliding door. Good times. I recall my dad showing me the engine under the hood. I don’t have any idea how someone worked on it. It was horribly crammed in.
i liked to call it the Ford Fordstar
The wheel to car ratio…
I think it’s just the photo. It was based on a truck, so it was a pretty hefty minivan. Plus cars these days have ridiculously sized wheels.
Recently read or saw in a video, the tire tech hadn’t advanced to the point we really are today.
It sounds funny but they couldn’t make the walls strong enough (and cheap enough) for typical production vehicles like today (if my memory is correct!) that’s why today cars have much “shorter” looking tires
Interesting! If you run across it again I’d love to see it.
Sorry, you said wheel but I assumed you were referring to the tires.
I’ll see if I can find it because I found it super interesting as well, haha
I should have been clearer, I meant the wheel and tire combo. They look like they belong on a much smaller vehicle. And I was alive when this car was new and my memory of it doesn’t look like this lol.
She’s majestic.
Why does this vehicle look like it has downs syndrome?
I don’t think they make this anymore?
I miss seeing those on the road. Name just fuckin rocks.
That’s not the '98 Ford Aerostar. That’s the glorious '98 Ford Aerostar.
My family had one of those even I was growing up. It was a late 80s or early 90s model. Same colors as that though. It was a pretty sweet ride. We went from being creamed in the back seat of a blazer and sharing a seatbelt to having our own seats.
