2008 Chrysler Town and Country - Great for a family but poor quality
The car itself is excellent for a bigger family as it can seat 7 and still have trunk space. The van has a fairly powerful engine which provides pretty impressive pickup.. The reliability has been bad. 2 Dead batteries, and two coolant leaks and transmission issues. The car is not good in the snow as the center of gravity is too far to the back. The ride is rather bumpy and not as smooth as I'd expect from a bigger car. There have been several recalls on this car which is rather concerning.
Story
We took the car on a 700 mile trip and it was quite accommodating and relaxing vehicle to enjoy on such a long trip.
Pros
Very spacious. Lots of room for people and groceries. Lots of options including DVD player, fold down seats.
Cons
The car does not get good gas mileage. The car is not reliable. The car is not good in the snow.
2008 Chrysler Town and Country - Good minivan
Its been a good and reliable minivan.
Story
This van had replaced the same make and model of Town & Country that we had totaled by hitting a deer at high speeds. This van holds up very well in those circumstances.
Pros
Good handling. Spacious interior.
Cons
Poor gas mileage. Performing maintenance tasks on the engine is very difficult because the engine is compressed into such a small space. When work needs to be done, I almost always have to hire a mechanic to do it.
