The Grand Caravan is a great car, despite it's "soccer mom" image. I chose the black exterior with beige interior. As my daughter says, it looks "tough", which is a nice image for a grandma! The engine is powerful enough to still have pickup even when fully loaded with adults. The second glove compartment and oversized console provide lots of room for storing cds and dvds for the built in entertainment system. The foldaway seats allow me to quickly go from carrying all the family (5 people including two carseats) to making room for my latest estate sale furniture find. And the vehicle is very roomy -- even with carseats in both of the second row captain seats, there is still plenty of room for people to crawl into the third row seat without knocking themselves senseless.

I like that all my kids can get in. I don't like the door. Don't have a remote for it. And the gas. You really don't get a good gas mileage.
