Caravan — It's the caravan, many good times in this van. The van is a very nice vehicle for transportation of a number of people or any large goods. Gas on this car is decent, it gets about 20 miles per gallon which is pretty good for a van. The sound system that is upgradable is a very nice one of bose. Alignment on this car needs to be maintained though, the van overall is pretty good and a must have for a family on the move

True Surprise — This van has it all: convenience, performance , space and good looks. I am pleasantly surprised at it's reliability, since Consumer Reports seems to rate this as a mediocre "grocery getter". It is the most comfortable vehicle I have ever owned.

Primary Use: Family transportation

Good Dependable Family Vehicle — We have owned this van for 5 years and put 80,000 miles on it. It starts every time, runs beautifully and averages 21mpg in all driving conditions. We have hauled the basketball, baseball and soccer team all over Louisiana. All 7 passengers are) comfortable. The van is quiet and solid. The V-6 is smooth and powerful.It has been in the shop only twice, once to change out the transmission computer module ($600) and the A/C condensor (under the dash-$1177) No other repairs.

Got Our Family Everywhere We Wanted To Go — Comfortable on long trips. Room for 7 and all the camping and sports gear we needed. Dealer installed luggage rack. Car serviced on a regular basis. This car has never given us any problems. It has been a very good car for us. Spent a lot of family time in this car. Happy memories.

Get An Older Dodge Minivan If You Really Want One, I Think The Older Ones Were Better. — I bought this thing for my wife and the tranny failed before I had a chance to put new tags on it. Obviously designed for a woman, my wife would be better to ask about this thing. It drove OK but I'vfe driven better.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Family Van — My dad owns a white Caravan. I drive it when my truck breaks down or is in the shop. Otherwise I try to avoid it.

Pros

Great handling van:  tight suspension/steering, good accelerator response, plenty of power.  Lots of cargo room, especially with rear seats removed.  Solid, comfortable ride.  Good family vehicle: my 84-year-old mom liked the hand grips when getting in and out.  Like the body styling, especially compared to the box-like vans sold today.  Driver controls are all within easy reach.  Lighted sun visor mirrors for driver and front passenger.  Fog lights are a big plus.

Cons

Better gas mileage would be a plus.

I Have Enjoyed Owning And Driving This Minivan. — Style, handling, overall feel are all real good. Lots of passenger and cargo space, including roof rack. Removable seats allow you to tailor your passenger and cargo space to your personal needs. I also like the storage drawer and console space.
