2008 Dodge Grand Caravan

Pros: Lots of room, flex-fuel capability (in SE models), a great basis for VW's new van

Cons: Cheap materials (SE model), blocky styling, uncomfortable rear seats, VW's van is better

The Bottom Line: If you can afford something nicer, go for it. That's hard to say, loving Mopar minvans as I do, but this one is nothing special.

Review: My family fell hard early on for Chrysler's first minivan nearly 25 years ago. My mother, before she became "Nana," owned four (1985, 1990, 1994 and 1997 models), and each was an incremental improvement over its predecessors.

I've owned 1994...

Pros: Good visibility - plenty of glass.

Cons: Cheap quality, poor handling, noisy interior

The Bottom Line: Consider Nissan, Toyota, or Ford. This vehicle is poorly designed with obvious corners cut for competitive price.

Review: I had the opportunity to drive the 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan for about 1 week while my VW Jetta was in the body shop. While I was in the hospital, the contractor who was building a new wing to the hospital was spraying concrete and got overspray all...

Pros: Satalite tv., duel heat, and navigation

Cons: Everything especially transmissions

The Bottom Line: Please save your family the money and hassel, this van just isn't worth it.

Review: Wow I have been puting off this review, because I don't know where to begin. So I guess I'll try to go from the begining without leaving anything out.

We bought this van back in June of 08, because my car messed up. We had been wanting a van...

Pros: stow and go, smooth ride

Cons: heavy and hard to close lift gate

The Bottom Line: I would strongly recommend this van to anyone looking for a minivan

Review: We have had this van for 2 months now and it has been wonderful. We bought it when we found out we were expecting our second child and our 04 Mitsubishi Lancer was going to get very crowded with 2 carseats and a double stroller. We are a military...

Pros: Features, comfort, room, handling, brakes, updated styling

Cons: Hard, light-coloured interior plastics, not quite up to Honda or Toyota build quality

The Bottom Line: Before deciding you need a Sienna or Odyssey, give this a try and save enough money to take the kids on vacation.

Review: Our family purchased a 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT almost three weeks ago, and we re very happy with the purchase. It s roomy, comfortable, has a smooth and quiet highway ride, and lots of unique useful features.

Much ink has been spilled...
