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 |

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 |

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 |

Persistent rumors that Ford will drop the line; Sable has already been dropped. The Milan Premier, although touted by Mercury as an upscale car, is nothing more than a re-badged Fusion and not as comfortable as my 2000 Taurus. see full Mercury Milan review |

Ford is not known for beating the Japanese in reliability. But at the time I bought this the Milan was rated more trouble free than Camry by consumer reports. I have only added gas and oil. It runs the same at 54K as 18K. see full Mercury Milan review |
