[NSRCA-discussion] Matthew Finley ( PATTERN TRANSPORT VEHICLE )

[ronlock at comcast.net]

Wifes car is a  2013 Town & Country minvan, that I borrow.   70,000 miles, so far so good.

Stow & Go seats are great.  It also has a 3rd row of 2 seats - OK for small kids.  They are

stow-able as well.  I removed them to get additional cargo space.  Not too bad of a job.

Removing them leaves a large deep area.   I cut a piece of 5/8 ply to use as a hatch cover.

I am thinking around the first part of summer to acquire a new set of wheels. Since Ford no longer makes any kind of minivan other than the transit, or something IMO ugly, I think I may break the family history and go with something other than a FORD..... I believe I have made the decision to focus on the Dodge Caravan with the stow and go seats, and the knowledge that many D4 fliers own them. Is there anyone out there that has had bad experiences with the Caravan ?? What ever vehicle I do purchase, I believe I will pay the little extra money to get it undercoated due to the salt issues with Ohio and Michigan driving.
