Used Dodge Grand Caravan for Sale near Orlando, FL
Because it was still one of the most popular minivans on the market, Dodge didn't tinker with its 1993 Grand Caravan, still available in base, SE, ES, and LE trims.
A 3.0 V6 at 142-hp or 3.3 V6, at 150-hp was the driving force behind soccer moms everywhere, and for such a hefty people mover, it got fairly decent gas mileage, at 20/27 mpg. Standard driver's front airbags (a first for minivans), and ABS enhanced the safety features, and all models of the Grand Caravan, except the Cargo Van, had an AWD option.
Drivers still find the third row of seats difficult for one person to remove, and transmission repairs seem frequent. But the powerful engine and sturdy suspension, while not ready for NASCAR (hmm, soccer mom NASCAR racing), gives drivers confidence when merging. A well-thought out interior is also a big selling point for the 1993 Grand Caravan. Able to seat seven relatively comfortably, the front instrument panel and consoles are convenient and easy to use. There is storage for just about every kind of object you might bring in the car.
3.5 Overall rating
(4 reviews)My Grand Caravan LE AWD has just a hair over 213,000 miles on it. With the exception of a blown head gasket, I have never had anything major go wrong with this van. Drives well and still gets 18mpg on the highway. Not bad for All Wheel Drive I guess. I am having problems locating parts for this particular vehicle though. Seems as though there were not many of these AWD LE's built to begin with and there are fewer and fewer of them still on the road.
I paid a very fair price for it, thanks to R & J Mobility in Independence, OR. For a Dodge Grand Caravan of this vintage, it is a lot better than most, especially given its high mileage. Still, there are the ongoing annoyances of the failing conversion components installed by Braun Entervan, a driver's power window that intermittently fails unpredictably, and Dodge's/Chrysler's typically weak headlights of this vintage, but these ongoing aggravations have not kept me from using it as a daily driver and driving it on long road trips (4k - 6k+ miles) with up to 30 mpg, depending on the quality of the fuel.
Although this powerful and spacious van started out that way, the 3.3L factory engine now has 180,000 miles on it, and considerably less "go" in it. The transmission, rebuilt at 75,000 miles, has, in the past year or so, begun slipping and behaving erratically. Overall, this is a great vehicle to have as a secondary, backup, and roadtrip vehicle.
good in snow 3.9 v6 works well good for any one and can be picked up rather cheap
