Used 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan for Sale near Escondido, CA
The 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan didn't change its MO much, as it seemd to be doing everything right. The same trims and engine options were offered, with the reappareance of the Cargo Van (C/V) this year. The 3.3-liter, 180-hp V6 came standard on the SE, eL, Sport, and Cargo Van, while the 3.8-liter, 215-hp V6 was standard on the eX and ES.
New for 2003 is a power sunroof option for the ES only, and standard power liftgate on the eX and ES, a feature highly valued by appreciative moms everywhere. The AutoStick transmission is discontinued in 2003. Grand Caravans also offer optional three-zone temperature control to accommodate the three rows of passenger seating.
There is no end to the praise for the 2003 Grand Caravan. From its wide variety of engine and trim options, to the smooth, quiet ride and car-like driving experience, to the cargo space and energetic engine, this minivan remains popular among owners. Drivers love the interior comfort and high seating. Some downsides are the heavy-to-remove third-row seating, wide turn radius, and maneuverability of the long Grand Caravans. One thing Dodge seems to have addressed is the transmission problems, as complaints of this in the 2003 Grand Caravan are not as abundant as in other years.
4.1 Overall rating
(26 reviews)The base engine is lacking in power compared to equivalent Japanese products. The Grand Caravan has plenty of space for a family of 4 or 5 with extra room for cargo or friends.
Great performance,plenty of power.No repairs or rattles,very quiet.The almond metallic paint is great--doesnt show the dirt.Really like the power sliding door & lift back for shopping.Computer shows avg. mileage to be 21 MPG !Inexpensive maintenance.Most reliable car I have ever owned.
As long as you keep up with good maintenance this van will go far. I currently have over 170k miles on it and it is still trucking. Never any major part failures. Just the normal stuff(i.e brakes, battery, and oil).
I was skeptical about owing a VAN....let's face it, i'm not in the Family mode where i have to transport 8 kids on a daily basis! But after taking these wheels for a test spin....all i can say is WOW!! I'm impressed! Does it ever drive NICE!! And LOTS of power thanks to the 6 banger under the hood. I'm used to my little 4 banger....WHAT a difference!! Getting that "pushed towards the back seat" feeling when u step on the gas.....brings back memories of the old days when I bombed around in high power V-8's!! i JUST LOVE IT!!!
My stepfather's current van, modified for wheelchair use. It's comfortable, fun to drive, and feature-rich. My only quibble is that the center of gravity is high enough that my stepfather can sway a bit when we go around corners at any speed. This is especially vexing when you're getting onto a highway at a parclo. The van is also made for rear-entry, and the raised back end makes reversing a chore.
