In Praise of the Chrysler Town & Country

We’ve had our Chrysler Town & Country for five and a half years.  It has over 117,000 miles, and it is still a great car.  We just completed a week trip from San Diego to the Russian River (an hour north of San Francisco) and the Town & Country ran perfectly.

There is so much storage room inside the car.  I’m always surprised at how much of our stuff we can get into it.  And the ride is smooth.  It’s easy to drive, and the passengers enjoy the ride as well.  The leather seats have held up very well.  With a little cleaning, they’d look close to new.  And the DVD player which I thought might work for three years, is still entertaining the offspring.  Beautiful.

Does this matter to anybody other than me?  Probably not.  But it’s been a great car for me, with little repair required.

I agree with you. I just replaced my 1997 Grand Voyager with a 2010 Grand Caravan. The Voyager had nearly as many miles as your T&C. It served us well on all college moves to and from Chicago and La Crosse, as well as when I moved belongings across town to our new house. The only reason I traded it was that the AC needed repair, but I got a great trade-in value. It still looked good inside and out after all those years. We can praise Chrysler vans - not just the T&C.
