6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The starting price for a well-equipped "Express" model is thousands less than the competition.
2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 251-horsepower 4.0L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The lower price and discounts make for reasonable payments.
2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Great dealer price on ex-leased vehicle...much less than an equivalent Japanese van
2007 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 It was reasonably priced compared to other models available.
2006 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Good value for money. Might not as be as reliable as imports BUT good enough!
2005 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 We got a $4,000 discount on the van on the lot.
2005 4dr Minivan, ext. 207-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Very low price for used Caravans.
2005 4dr Minivan, ext. 207-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Price is reasonable compared to the competition
2005 4dr Minivan, ext. 207-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Thousands cheaper than a Honda or Toyota and for us, besides the little things, very reliable overall.
2005 4dr Minivan, ext. 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 I picked up a used model well equipped 6 months old with 12,000 miles for $16,500 with an extended powertrain warranty up to 80k miles. Retail KBB was $19k+.
2004 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Since it is domestically produced minivan, I found the Caravan comparatively cheaper, as compared to imports (and even some domestics, such as GM and Ford.
2003 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 As a used vehicle, the Caravan costs about half as much as a Sienna or Odyssey of similar age and mileage.
Price of the Dodge Grand Caravan: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 This compares the SE to SXT. IMO, the SXT costs $5K more but only provides less efficiency, power doors, and more electronics. Power doors add weight and reduce reliability. Any electronics will be out of date next year. Your money, your toys.
2007 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 For the money spent, we were able to get a fully loaded Hyundai, whereas the same money would not have given us as much with a Caravan.
2003 4dr Minivan 215-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 I major issue is vehicle price based on fuel ecomomy.

2006 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 No discount available when I shopped.
2003 4dr Sedan 210-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Avalon price higher; not as negotiable-at several dealers.
