Review
This is my wife's car and I love it. Great interior design and classic exterior. The ride is outstanding and very comfortable. Plenty of power, but gas mileage could be better. Overall it's a great car.

2006 Chrysler Pacifica Touring 4dr Wagon (3.5L 6cyl 4A)
Review
I just recently became a father, and had to get rid of my Dodge Dakota, Not only do I love this vehicle but I purchased a nicely equipped touring, and unburied myself 11k out of my Dodge truck and my payments went up $60.00 a month. I needed out of that truck, but as I drive it more and more every day it just gets beater. My wife loves it more than her Jetta because it is so much easier to get take the baby in. I have almost 3000 miles on it now, and it is performing perfectly, handles awesome, and the gas mileage while it could be better is better than that truck was. I am getting I guess split between highway, and city around 15-18. I love driving it. The stereo is ok, especially w/sirius
Favorite Features
The radio has and MP3 player built in, and sirius was included for a year. The ten way power driver seat, and the second row captains chairs that recline are nice, Great room for a family of three. Even if you have to take the grandparents with you there is still room for those 2 also.
Suggested Improvements
Gas mileage, Gas mileage, Gas mileage, Gas mileage. I would also make that power rear door standard on all touring as mine did not come with it. We did not want the leather as we live in southern florida, and it is hot here. Also we did not get side curtain bags, they should be standard. More Power.

Review
At one point while driving my brand new Pacifica home from the dealership, I thought that I felt the car move to the right. Within the next day, I discovered that the car did pull to the right when I accelerated. I took the vehicle back to the dealer and that began a long battle between myself and Chrysler. The only answer I have gotten from them is that the pulling to the right is a characteristic of the car! I was told to "deal with it!" I persued this problem throught Chrysler and was told that there was nothing that could be done. I hate driving this car and I am in the process of trading it now.
Favorite Features
The only thing that recommends this car is its exterior features. It has no storage in the interior and the front wheel drive wagon pulls to the right when you accelerate.
Suggested Improvements
Replace the dual drive shaft so that the front end does not have such severe torque steering.

2006 Chrysler Pacifica Limited 4dr Wagon AWD (3.5L 6cyl 4A)
Review
This was a nice attempt to create somthing a little different. It's clear that this was a car produced after the merger. The interior materials and design are much better than anything Chrysler produced prior. The engine is adequate but would be alot better it the car didn't weigh so much. Gas mileage would be better as well. The experience making minivans shows in the inside with the attention to details. I like the fact that the seats fold flat without the console in the middle of the 2nd row getting in the way. Thus far mine has been solid. I am curious to see with all the electronics (nav system, tire pressure monitor, EVIC system etc.) will hold up over time. This was a solid effort.
Favorite Features
Nav screen in the speedo, good ride quality and comfort.
Suggested Improvements
5 speed transmission, better gas milage, Chrysler needs to look at weight reduction for this vehicle to assist in gas mileage.

2006 Chrysler Pacifica 4dr Wagon (3.5L 6cyl 4A)
Review
My wife and I really enjoy our Chrysler Pacifica. We traded in our Dodge Stratus to get our Pacifica and although they are different types of transportation we enjoyed our Stratus but the view that we get from our Pacifica is much better. We had great success with the Stratus and so far the Pacifica has by far exceeded our expectation. We have gotten between 25 and 28 miles per gallon depending on travel conditions. I would recommend this vehicle to any one. I would have liked to have goten the 3.8 that was offered in the 2005 but it wasn't offered in the 2006. I know the 3.5 offers more power but I don't tow anything and the 3.8 got better milage. I give the Pacifica 5 stars.

Review
We're so excited about owning this car! This Limited AWD Pacifica has it all. Beautiful exterior lines, with all the comforts of your family room inside. It handles so nicely around town and is especially fun to drive on extended trips down the coast of California. The DVD system and the integrated Sirius Satellite Radio are perfect for Mom, Dad and our two teenage daughters. You can plug your ipod right into the front of the stereo system via the A/V jacks too! It's a hefty, sturdy vehicle so the mileage isn't that great but it sure wasn't a deal-breaker. Any family of 6 or less should definitely look at the Pacifca!
Favorite Features
We like the sporty exterior styling. It's really a nice looking car. We love the power everything. The memory key system for two different drivers is super, 'cause I'm 6' 2" and my wife is 5 feet. The sound system with DVD is super for extended drives! The power moonroof is also nice to have too!
Suggested Improvements
A tad better MPG would be nice.

Review
Got this about a week ago. Drove it about 1000 miles in the last week. Comfortable and quiet. Nav system a dream for my wife who can't read a map. Problem with tire pressure system errors. Dealer to look at tomorrow. Otherwise no problems.
Favorite Features
Nav and audio system
Suggested Improvements
Buffeting by wind when windows are open partway. VERY loud vibrations as explained in the manual. No fix, just open them a little more.
