Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
Pros
- Excellent ride and handling, good low-end pull from 3.8-liter V6, roomy and luxurious interior, innovative fold-flat second- and third-row seats.
Cons
- Unimpressive reliability history, major safety features remain optional on lower-level models, no stability control.
What’s new
The Town & Country gets revised styling, a handful of new features, a much lower base price and -- oh yeah, the Stow 'n Go fold-flat second- and third-row seating system.
Edmunds says
Pleasing to drive and ride in, the T&C has finally come to the table with the all-important fold-flat third seat, allowing families to get the most out of its expansive interior. While it still can't match the rock-solid reliability of import rivals, this otherwise well-qualified van is worth consideration.

Best Minivan EVER
ndchic77, 02/25/2015
2005 Chrysler Town and Country Limited 4dr Ext Minivan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
We bought this minivan used with 118,000 miles on it. Nothing has ever gone with it mechanically. the only thing we have replaced is a power steering reservoir. It has always started even in ND winters without being plugged in. It now has 235,000 miles on it and still going strong. I think that if your looking for a vehicle that you can get your moneys worth out of this is the minivan … for you.

2005 Chrysler Town and Country Touring 4dr Ext Minivan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
I purchased an 05 T&C with 24000 miles on it 4 years ago.
I did not pay for a luxury vehicle, but felt I got an exceptional value for the money.
It has been very comfortable to drive and very reliable.
It now has 44,000 miles and I am still very happy with the handling, maintence, comfort and gas mileage.
Love the stow and go!

2005 Chrysler Town and Country Touring 4dr Ext Minivan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Bought our Town & Country touring edition new because of the price and stow &Go. Best decision I made that year. Have travled the entire USA and packed some heavy loads. Never returned to the dealer as the vehicle has never had a problem in 50,000 miles. Still has original tires and brakes. Only cost is gas and oil changes at 7500 mile intervals. Have never reset the MPG computor … and it showes 20.4 MPG for an average of the 50,000 Mi. I intend to replace the front brake pads soon and tires before winter. Hope all my future cars are as pleasing as this vehicle.

Owned from new

2005 Chrysler Town and Country Touring 4dr Ext Minivan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Purchased the vehicle new.
70K+ miles later, it is the only vehicle I have ever owned that I feel is worth the money.
The ONLY problems we have had with it are the EGR valve and brakes wearing out sooner than they should.
Everything else works like new on.
No electronic failures whatsoever.
Starts runs and drives like a car with only 10k miles.
Have driven across country twice with it, … drive it daily and it is perfectly suited to both tasks.
