I have a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan. I like the overall van style vs having an SUV. It is a smooth ride even being close to 200,000 miles.

I love the stow-and-go seating. It is great when I need to haul something large or for extra storage under the floorboard. I also like the Uconnect system, as long as you have the required headset, the kids can listen to their movie, the passenger can listen to radio or CD or movie, and the driver can listen to whatever they wish to listen to. I also like that the sliding doors and back hatch have buttons to open and close them while hands are full. The transmission however has been less than desirable; it holds onto gears and then, other times, it shifts. We have taken it in to the shop three times now for these issues, but we keep getting told that they cannot replicate the issue. There is very little leg room for them passenger in these. I am six feet tall, and when I travel somewhere, I have grab a blanket to put between my knees and the dashboard, otherwise I end up bruised. My sister in law, who is significantly shorter, barely has any leg room as well. In the past, our Dodge vehicles have had amole leg room, so it is disappointing to have such little leg room.
