Hi all,

I always loved Pontiacs, and while I have driven a few over the years(including a 1980 Trans Am my friend loaned me once in a while), I never actually owned one until now. Our '02 Grand Caravan crapped out last week, and I was very impressed with a 2005 Montana SV6 Extended, So we bought it, and just took possession yesterday. Loving it!

cool beans! Congrats, those Montanas are pretty nice vans.

Welcome to the forums!

Those vans are pretty decent. Killerspeed had one, he'll chime in eventually.

Welcome to FP and the madness and to the Pontiac family. As Chaos said, Killer outta be along soon. Glad you like your Montana.

welcome to FP!

Welcome to the site

All stock, and it will mostly have to stay that way, but I will have to add a few personalizing touches, here and there.

The performance is not bad and the handling excellent. Might get me in trouble if I don't watch the lead in my toes.

Wow, that one is in great shape! Nice Montana!

Yeah, it's in very good shape. Some wear and light stains on the front seats but otherwise, excellent. Maybe it will get some nice seat covers. While the Caravan was a decent vehicle, and served us well, the Montana makes it seem like a tinker toy, by comparison.

Welcome, where are you at in Ontario?

Near Stratford, in southern Ontario.

Nice I am from Sarnia so the wife and I cruise to Stratford for drives once and a while.

Well, we're not overly far apart then. I have never been to Sarnia, but do get to London fairly often, via the 401, and ocasionally(only if I can't help it. ) Toronto.

I suppose one thing I could wish these had had were manual transmission options. I do love a good stick-shift.

Welcome fellow ontarian ( im in the falls) and fellow vanner
this is my " great white"

Thanks. That one looks pretty good too. I've been to the falls area, once. And yeah, I van it. We live a bit outside of town and haul a lot at a time, plus, my wife is disabled and I have a spine issue, so getting into and out of a van is much easier than a car these days. Even the last actual car we had was a station wagon. An '85 Nissan Maxima, with the 3.0 V6.
