2005 Dodge Grand Caravan SE Plus review from North America
"Good basic transportation"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Center row cup holder broken 20,000.
Middle row seats show some wear.
General comments?
This car has a lot of room, the stow and go seats are easy to opperate and create a huge area for cargo.
The 3.3 engine provides okay power, but would suggest getting the 3.8 instead.
The driver seat gets a little uncomfortable on long trips.
My gas mileage average city/highway combined is 22 mpg. Not too bad compared to my previous SUV's.
The Dodge Grand Caravan may not be as refined as the foreign minivans, but they can be a great bargain if you find a one year old model with low mileage.
