I've owned two dozen of them

I purchased my first Dodge Caravan in 1984 and have owned over two dozen of them since. I use them in my delivery business and get over 200,000 miles out of each one.

my grandkid mobile

I got my 2008 about 5 years ago and it has been one of the most comfortable cars on the road I have ever had, especially long trips. I had over 113,000 miles on it and decided to upgrade to a newer model.

Great vehicle!

We love our Stow and Go! It's very dependable, gets us where we need to go, even in snowy conditions. Lots of cargo space when the seats fold down. Love It!

Excellent value, great performance

I purchased this minivan in January of 2015. It's great on mileage, with an average of 24.5-25 mpg on the highway. The stow-and-go seats are great when we need to haul things. The ability of the back windows and vents in the rear to open makes it easier to get rid of musty air on hot days. It drives and handles well. The seats are comfortable. Our model has a bench seat in the middle which prevents using the stow and go feature but the advantage is in the included child safety seats that work great for my granddaughter. The rear stow area creates a well in the back that is awesome for groceries and cargo. This is my third Caravan and I couldn't be happier with them. They've served me well and require only minimal upkeep unlike other vehicles that break down a lot.

A great used vehicle

This vehicle is comfortable, and flexible for transport, moving, and other mixed purposes. It shares a normal garage very easily, and is an economical daily driver. I've even driven it off-road in the Sierras! It replaced a very comfortable and well-loved Suburban, but it's more flexible to load, and much more economical to drive. For a mini-van (with it's inherent limitations) I cannot find anything major to complain about. I hate the thought of every having to replace it... (I wish it had a roof-rack, and a trailer-hitch, but I've lived without those things all these years.)

Great car

We have had Dodge vans for years. They are very dependable, even in winter weather. This Dodge Stow and Go is great. Just put the seats down and almost anything will fit.

Drive them until they stop moving

This is my second grand caravan. My first I drove until it was wreaked and it had over 300,000 miles on it. The engine could have gone on. The window motors stopped working along with other electronic devices elsewhere in the body of the car but it ran well until it was hit. I have four children and all their friends, sports, kayaking, camping, family vacations, off road adventures...used more like a truck...now I am over 230,000 hard working family use on my 2008 and just now having to replace and repair. I love these hard working vehicles.

Great vehicle

This is my second Grand Caravan. It is wonderful for the variety of uses. We have used it for social events (seats 6-7 people), work projects ( can carry a 4'X8' plywood,) , camping goods, a large dog,etc. I have recommended it to several people (especially those with young children).

Reliable and Dependable

I have been very pleased with the performance of my 2008 Grand Caravan. As of this writing, I now have 249,852 miles with the original engine and transmission!!! And all of the original features are still functioning (dual DVD players, CD, electrical outlets, etc). The only noticeable wear is a small rust spot on the drivers side back panel by the rear tire, and a small split in the seam of the drivers seat - maybe 4 inches long. This minivan still runs so well that I’m hesitant to buy something else. And overall, I feel very safe driving/ riding in it on the snow and ice.

2008 Dodge Grand Caravan is Delightfully Great!!!!

Throughout this year I often asked myself now that you have four children 3 step children and a step granddaughter.I think it is too much you need a van but which one should you get I asked. Well I took too long to decide which one and when should I get one so snowmagghedon decided for me my 1997 toyota camry broke down as a result. So I marched myself down to Burien Toyota on Saturday and asked for assistance the receptionist asked me to wait that someone would be with me shortly. Along came Matthew Short who recommended a 2008 Dodge Caravan. He said all I needed was some money for a down payment so on Monday I marched my way over with the down payment and the Dodge Caravan was mine. Communication with Matthew Short during this time was delightful he seems to a caring conscientious human being whom I believe has found the right career choice. Everyone at Toyota were very engaging. I believe everything was done in a timely matter including the paperwork by Ms. Monro. I strongly recommend Burien Toyota for their professionalism and the Dodge Caravan for a huge family. Matthew Short and staff are very capable individuals who are thoughtful and dedicated to their work. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any other questions. Sincerely, Bianca Del Rosario

Great vehicle

I am a Chrysler fan and thus Dodge caravan is the greatest. Confort is the main attribute. Convenience comes in a close second. Reliability is tied for the top spot. 11 years old and still going strong.

Grand Caravan SXT 2008 model

Grand Caravan SXT 2008 model. We like to vacation so we needed a great dependable vehicle to get us where we’re going with no problems. Our 2008 Dodge grand Caravan SXT with the 4.0 L engine in it has never failed us to get us there in style and comfort.

2008 Dodge Caravan

Our Dodge Caravan has served us well. Very comfortable and reliable. Would highly recommend this van. At this time, we’re going to sell it as we only need one car. We’ve always had the repairs done at C & D.

Very family friendly

We love the interior design of the Grand Caravan. After years of use, interior still looks sharp and newish in spite of heavy use with kids in all weather. If Dodge would simply take care of their rusting problems by simply adding some nickel or chromium to the steel in the bodies of their cars which allows the surface oxide layer to be much stronger, and prevents further oxidation. We would rate it five stars if we didn't have rust spots on our 2008 caravan. Our previous Dodge Durango rusted too. Look on the streets...Doge cars are rustier than any other cars out there. We will not buy another Dodge because of this, and we otherwise were very happy with all the design features. When will Dodge take care of the rusting problem?!
