valid points. The one thing I can't stand about the Dodge stuff
though, and I'm on my 4th and last one now, is that they basically can't get
the electrical gremlins out of the car. Every one of mine has acted as if
it is haunted in some way. I can explain each of the unique behaviors
that my 4 Caravan's have had, but it just shouldn't be so. It's more
stuff than is worth going into here, but don't say I didn't warn you. You
get what you pay for. Next time, I'm looking at a Mitsubishi.<br>

I can honestly say that I love mine too. The mileage figures everyone is
claiming are right on. On my trip to the NATs this year I saw 24 - 26
with the A/C on (and I wasn't exactly driving at the speed limit). Around
town you get about 18. PLENTY of room. I have Stow-N-Go on mine so I can fold
the seats right into the floor. When you do this you can get full 8' sheets of
plywood inside the van with the hatch closed. </span></font></p>

I have the Grand Caravan. Two 2 meter planes are not a problem even with
a tent, chair and extra tool boxes. I never thought that I would drive a
mini van, but it is actually a pretty nice vehicle to drive all the time.
However, the kids I work with call it the " loser
cruiser". It's not real sexy, but you get to haul stuff
from Home Depot too. Highway mileage is 26 with the A/C on. It's a
better value than the Town and Country(but not as nice).</span></font></p>
