Why the Chrysler Pacifica?
Safety & braking: The brakes have 74500 miles and stil have lots of linimg left. The brakes are the Longest lasting and best of any vehicle we've ever owned. Anti lock, and ESP, and brake assist this makes this for safe dependable braking.
Powertrain performance: The 4.0 L is a powerful engine mated to a great 6 speed automatic that works very smooth, and the pick up is better than most V-8 engines. At 74,400 miles mpg is still excellant, power is still consistantly great.
Fuel economy: This vehicle gets an honest 22 to 26 mpg on the hwy at 70+ mph. In town it's 19 to 22mpg. That's better than most small CUV's. This is one of Chrysler's biggest cars made in 2007 and with 4,700+ lbs it's a bests buy!
Materials & workmanship: Everything both inside and outside reflects quality. Leather seats are plush and comfortable. The seat warmers are on all 4 bucket seats. The fit and finish is of a high quality expected in a Chrysler.
Reliability & durability: Lifetime PowerTrain Warranty and Life-Time Max-Care extended Warranty was a major reason for buying this Pacifica. At 3 years and 74,400 miles we are very pleased we bought this Chrysler Pacifica Touring AWD.
