I love my van. It has been a lifesaver since we got it. I didn't get for kids; we only have one. We also have two large pit bulls that love to go for rides. This gives them plenty of room to spread out. We are also big campers. We can finally get as much stuff as we need packed. The under seat cargo in the middle row is very handy for storing the kid and dog's gear. It's the first time we have had the room that we needed. We also love long cross-country road trips. Our van gives us the leg room we need. It has been a true life saver.

Although the Dodge Grand Caravan is a very popular model today, my experience has not been a good one. We traded our 14-year-old van and purchased our Caravan as a used car that was three years old. Since then, many little (and some big) things have gone wrong. There always seems to be some problem. We no longer (ever) take this van out of state, because every time we go for a long distance, something breaks. We drove from Illinois to Florida and lost our power steering, rack and pinion. We drove from Illinois to Wisconsin, and the serpentine belt broke. The actuator door for the heat/air has been broken almost since we bought the car (two are broken. I think we have four). We didn't get this repaired. It just clicks when we use it. Many other issues. This is the first Dodge car that I have ever purchased, and I will never again.
