2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 175-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Dodge has been making these vehicles longer than any other, they have much experience with these vehicles. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review
2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 I bought Dodge only because Ford was involved in supporting homosexuality. If I had waited until now I would have bought a Ford. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review
2002 4dr Minivan, ext. 215-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Most popular and plenty availability of parts and service facilities see full Dodge Grand Caravan review

2009 4dr Minivan, ext. 251-horsepower 4.0L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 THEY DO NOT STAND behind their vehicle as one would expect from a manufacturer of a BRAND NEW Mini-Van. My last Dodge/Chrysler after 24 years of purchasing...as many of the family too. Employee or not discount or not...NO THANKS! We are going elsewhere. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review
2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 2008 seems to have had many bad reviews and JD Power reliability is rated only 2 of 5. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review
2008 4dr Minivan, ext. 251-horsepower 4.0L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The reputation though well deserved of inferior products. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review
2005 4dr Minivan, ext. 207-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Web reports/research states that oil consumption problem is not normal and one should worry about long term durability of the engine. Other research shows Daimler-Chrysler has overall quality and safety issues. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review
2005 4dr Minivan, ext. 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Extremely poor reliability expectations of virtually every component on the vehicle. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review

2013 2dr Convertible 101-horsepower 1.4L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 One of the really sad things about the Fiat 500 is the way FCA is handling the brand here in the US. The Fiat 500 is actually many different cars, some good and some not good at all, but to most American buyers a Fiat 500 is just a Fiat 500. Nobody really knows if you are talking about the 500 hatchback (a true retro economy car), the 500L sedan/wagon (the dual clutch gearbox has not worked any better for Fiat than for Ford in the Focus/Fiestia), the Abarth (a real fun car for drivers only), or the 500X (Built on Jeep running gear With more style than off-road performance). Only the Abarth stands slightly apart since it is devoid of Fiat badges and costs a good deal more than most other "500" models. see full Fiat 500 review
2012 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Fiat used to have a so-so reputation because their cars rusted. This car has a 'not-rust-through' guarantee for something like ten or twelve years and is totally galvanized metal. It is a very stylish car, too. see full Fiat 500 review
