If it will shut off just by turning the wheel to lock, could be something as simple as a tuneup, IAC valve, throttle body cleaning...

Beautiful looking van, welcome to the site!

A stock Astro/Safari will handle it just fine. A good running van with decent tires, and a full sized spare(I wouldn't skimp on this).
