2007 | 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Very good support. Just the right height. Tilt steering column adds to comfort. Armrest also provides added comfort. see full Chrysler Town & Country review |

The 2nd and 3rd row seats are acceptable for even long trips. This is not the Stow-&-Go version where the seats seem to be thinner, less comfortable. see full Chrysler Town & Country review |
