Overall, our 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan has worked out well for our family. The car has great performance, though with a V6 it can make get up and go a little difficult with a full load of passengers and luggage. We have had very few major repairs in the time that we have owned it so I would say that it is great as far as sustainability. The car travels well and is comfortable to ride in for long car trips. The interior has held up well to abuse from several children, though the stow and go floor covers have a lock at the hinge that breaks easily making it more difficult to tuck the captain's chairs away.

We purchased this vehicle when I was seven months pregnant with our second child. Before this we had a small, old Chevy Cavalier. We knew that when we went to purchase a new car we needed something roomy, easy to drive, and could fit both a large or small driver (I am quite short and my husband is pretty tall). This vehicle definitely delivered. The longer we have it the more happy we are with our purchase. The stow away seats make loading car seats and children easy. It gives us extra room for purchases whether it's just groceries or a large item such as a big area rug or piece of furniture. The trunk isn't the biggest, but it is enough space to fit our stroller folded up along with some groceries. I found it easy to drive and an easy transition (I had never driven anything other then small cars). The auto locks, windows etc. are a plus as well. There's a good sound system, with steering wheel controls which is convenient. Besides the smaller trunk, I don't think I have found anything I dislike yet. We have driven it in some snowy weather, and, although not amazing in snow, it did the job. Not too many blind spots while driving either.
