Just curious: did you use a transmission pump to tow it or a driveshaft dis-connect or???

Perhaps I am missing something but how can this vehicle show 84,000 miles if it was towed 52,000? Doesn't the speedometer cable drive off the transmission? Or was it driven 84,000 and towed 52,000? Confused.

The odometer and speedometer are not driven by a mechanical cable; they are electronic and are driven by the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) which IIRC does not operate if the ignition is not on. I haven't tried it, but I presume that if the van was dinghy towed with the engine off, the odometer wouldn't record the mileage.
