THE GOOD:
• We purchased this Dark Blue Caravan (not Grand) used with ~53k miles,~ four years ago, from Bonneville & Sons in Hookset NH, where it had also been purchased new. It looked like the dealership went through it and installed new belts, rear shocks, brakes, etc. . .
• It now has ~93k miles, and it's been a reliable, trouble-free ride the entire time.
• It starts, runs, shifts, drives and stops just as it should - smooth and straight, and uses only ~one quart of oil between changes.
• It is a non-smoking car, with clean interior (no rips, tears, stains, etc.).
• Routine maintenance performed by yours truly has included oil/filter changes every ~5000 miles, tire rotations every ~10,000 miles, new front brake pads/rotors and a new battery.
• The only warranty repair was replacement of the transmission solenoid pack, performed ~two years ago by Port City Chrysler.
• The only non-warranty repair was last year's replacement of the forward oxygen sensor, which was indicated by my little OBD scan tool. (This was the ONLY time the check engine light came on during our four years of ownership.)
• The factory options on this particular SXT model include: A/C (blows cold and strong -- always has), Cruise Control, Driver/passenger zoned climate controls, Power windows, Power locks, Power mirrors, DVD player, AM/FM/CD, Alloy wheels, Second row bucket seats, Rear privacy glass, Roof rack
THE BAD (full disclosure):
• It's going to need tires (size 215/65 16); the ones on it now are worn uniformly & perfectly -- right down to the tread wear indicators.
• The passenger-side power window is nonfunctional, with the window stuck in the up (closed) position.
• The power lock on the driver side rear door works 'seasonally'; only in the cold/winter months for some reason.
• There is a crust bubble on the driver side front fender, along with some other minor nicks & scratches -- typical for a nine year old minivan.
(Regarding the reference to an 'accident' in NC reported in the vehicle history, I remember seeing this same report when we were buying the car, but I'll be damned if I can detect any related issues.)
THE UGLY:
• Nothing to speak of. . .
Price is set at $3,725. Vehicle is located at our residence in Dover, NH. Local Pickup Only - No transport. Email with questions and/or to arrange viewing.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat's 707 storming horses can be yours for $60k
Wed, 16 Jul 2014We love a good deal on high performance. It's what traditionally makes muscle cars so appealing - you get lots of speed, for not a lot of money. For 2015, Dodge has taken this to its logical extreme, offering its new 707-horsepower, supercharged, V8-powered Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat for just $59,900. For those wondering, that works out to just about $85 per horsepower, which when compared with a typical budget performance car, like the $24,995, 210-hp Volkswagen GTI ($119 per hp), demonstrates the Hellcat's astonishing value.
The information was revealed by a photo (click on the inset image to expand) taken at this week's Portland launch event (our man Seyth Miersma is just now on the ground and will have a full report on the madness that is the Hellcat soon) for the entire 2015 Challenger range, and reveals the Hellcat's price alongside its high-powered competitors from Ford and Chevrolet.
The discontinued 662-hp Mustang GT500 started at $56,000, while the 580-hp Camaro ZL1 starts off at $58K. Indeed, the only muscle car that outprices the Hellcat is the track-focused Camaro Z/28, a car that we're guessing could still wallop the Hellcat on the right piece of track, despite being down over 200 hp.
Dodge Dart Mopar '13 special edition recalled over airbag woes
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Dodge is only building 500 examples of the black-and-blue Mopar '13 Dart, but the majority of them are now being recalled. Part of the Mopar upgrade included replacing the stock seat skins in the Dart with black and blue Katzkin leather, but the seat-mounted side airbags were reinstalled improperly during the upfitting process, which could affect the performance of the front seat side airbags.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, a total of 374 Mopar '13 cars are being recalled due to side airbags that might not deploy in a side-impact collision. There have been no reports of the airbags not going off, but Chrysler will still need to reinstall the bags to ensure proper deployment. The recall notice is posted below, which gives information for Mopar '13 owners to contact Chrysler and NHTSA.
NHTSA investigating 110,000 Ram 2500s and 3500s, one death alleged
Fri, 23 May 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has launched an investigation focusing on 110,000 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups from model years 2004 to 2006. One death has already been reported, according to NHTSA, due to a potential fault with the clutch interlocks on manual-transmission versions of the heavy duty pickup.
According to the report, these trucks can be started without depressing the clutch. There have been three reports so far, and as we mentioned above, one very sad incident seems to have resulted in the death of a child.
"One complaint involved an incident that occurred when a child was able to enter the vehicle and start the ignition without depressing the clutch. The vehicle then moved forward striking another child resulting in a fatality," NHTSA said in the investigation bulletin, which you can view below.
