Review

I use my 1998 15 passenger van for my shuttle business. I bought it with 10,000 miles in 1999 and as of Dec 2007 I have 180,000 miles on it. Besides oil changes, tires, and brakes pads this van has never had any problems or let me down. Engine and transmission great. Air cond. good. Zero problems. Best van I have ever had.

Favorite Features

Dependable. I also use it to pull a 21 foot boat and it does it easly with no straining. Interior has held up exceptionly well. Body also. Even though in Chicago area no rust. Very pleased with this vehicle

Suggested Improvements

Gas mileage 10-14 mpg. Besides that nothing I can think of.

The Functional Van

Review

It's not necessarily pretty or particularly fun to drive but it has been a very good functional van. The pick up is pretty poor, but it cruises from 60-75 mph very well.

Favorite Features

It holds eight people, and has good storage behind the back seat.

Review

you will spend lots of time geting it repaired. brakes won't last long, electical system will trouble you,guzzles gas, drive train is a headache. this is the 2nd one i've had and the last. ( i thought maybe the first was a lemon, gave it a second chance).dodge is less expensive than other makes, but you get what you pay for!

Favorite Features

lots of useable load space,great for long trips-comfortable.sitting up high lets you see lots of the road ahead.

Suggested Improvements

move side view mirrors -they block oncoming traffic, especially on curves- very hazzardous!dodge has a history of bad drive trains, electrical problems and brake trouble. they've been around long enough to have figured out how to improve these deficiencies!
