2002 Dodge Grand Caravan Rear Entry Handicap Ramp Mobility Van
Vehicle is in excellent condition with Low Mileage
Up for auction is our personal vehicle - this is not a business, nor am I someone who purchased this van to "flip" it for a profit - something that is becoming all too common these days. We purchased this van from the original owner a few years ago to transport our handicapped son. This van has been a god send - really. We had a side entry van before this one and time after time had difficulty finding a suitable handicap parking spot due to the ridiculously liberal policies for handing out the passes to people who clearly can walk the extra few feet, but that is a discussion for another time. Having a rear entry vehicle for his power wheelchair that allowed us to park in any spot has changed our lives - and his. With this van we could take him anywhere without concern as to where we had room to park.
The van is loaded - what it didn't have, we added so that we could take trips to family out of state and take him to his doctors both in and out of state, and have his two sisters come along and ride comfortably.
The van is equipped with:
*Front and rear bucket seats ( 4 in total) that are in perfect shape - no stains, rips or marks - very nice shape!
Vehicle can handle (4) people plus the wheelchair - so 5 total
*Rear Wheelchair Entry Ramp Conversion, with 4 point Q-Straint ratchet straps. The two front straps are fixed and the two rear straps can be located in various positions depending upon the size and position of the chair.
The Rear ramp is 33" wide, Lightweight to handle and operate while being very robust for the heaviest of chairs ( my son's chair is very large and it handles him and it with ease) and is maintenance free!
* Front and Rear A/C, which blows nice and cold, and has separate rear controls for the rear passengers
* Power Windows
*Power Locks
* Cruise Control
*In Dash DVD / CD AM/FM radio, which is tied into rear headrest mounted video screens for the rear passengers - your front passenger can watch as well as the rear and you can control the operation from up front so no need to reach behind you while driving!
The body and paint are nearly perfect - I keep the van clean inside and out. I am an ASE Master Mechanic, so everything I own and drive is kept in top shape, and I don't take chances with my family
There is one (1) scratch on the body where someone was so nice as to smack their door into mine in a parking lot. Luckily it hit the passenger rear door handle so it just made a small chip - no dents or dings anywhere, it shines like new.
The interior is as close to new as you can get - no stains, rips, cracks - nothing.
Mechanically the van is also in mint shape - it has low miles - just 73,520, and I have addressed every regular maintenance item as well as every common issue with the Dodge Caravan such as:
New high output alternator about 6 months ago
New battery about 6 months ago
New Front and Rear brakes about 5,000 miles ago
New serpentine belt and belt tensioner about 6 months ago
New radiator about 3,000 miles ago
New valve cover gaskets about 6,000 miles ago
New airconditioning condenser about 6,000 miles ago
New electric fans (2) last year - about 8,000 miles ago
New shocks front - about 10,000 miles ago
New Rear HD coil over shocks about 8,000 miles ago
I use Mobil 1 synthetic oil religiously and change the oil every 3,000 miles or 6 months - whichever comes first.
I also change the filter at every oil change, and the air filter once a year.
As you can see - this van is loaded, in mint shape and needs nothing to get out and help you get that special person in your life mobile again, and with the best possible way to load a wheel chair.
Oh and it gets good gas mileage too
So, why are we selling - we have just outgrown it.
We are looking to relocate down south and have some trips planned to look at houses etc..
Our son has grown quite a bit since we first purchased the van, as well as our family. It kills me to sell the van but we need to move onto a full size van that can carry our whole family, and all of his medical gear and our luggage for long trips on the road.
I just purchased a rear entry full size GMC van with a HD rear lift. The new van is not going to be as easy to park as the Caravan but it is what it is and we have to move on.
You wont be disappointed. I encourage anyone who is interested to come, look the vehicle over and take it for a ride.
update on van i bought van hoping i will need for a long time but mom passed after only two rides to doctor this van is so easy to use mom loved it dont pass this one up. i purchased van from seller allterrainn who has a 100% rating so bid with confidence there are not many vans like this look around.

Watch the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat verify its 204-mph top speed
Thu, Jan 29 2015The industry is producing some ridiculously fast four-doors these days, from the Porsche Panamera and Maserati Quattroporte to the Mercedes E63 AMG and BMW M5. But the fastest of them all doesn't cost six figures. It doesn't even come from Europe. It's made right here in North America, by a US automaker. And it starts at under $64k. We're talking about the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, the Pentastar muscle sedan with the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and its 707 horsepower. Dodge claims it's the "quickest, fastest, most powerful [production] sedan ever," and they're not just blowing smoke... or smoking tires. During the final stages of development, engineers from Auburn Hills took a bone-stock, Hellcat-powered Charger out to a seven-mile oval for a top speed run and they filmed the occasion for posterity. The result? 206.9 miles per hour with the wind, 202.2 against it, for a two-way average top speed of 204.55 mph. Chew on that, imports.
Hellcat no help to Fiat-Chrysler's bottom-of-the-pile mpg average
Wed, Oct 15 2014What, you expected the "fastest muscle car ever" to help fleetwide fuel economy? Nope, don't think that's going to happen. That means Fiat Chrysler will likely to continue to languish at the bottom of the heap when it comes to fleetwide fuel economy among the largest automakers serving the US, especially as the automaker starts to sell its Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. A few hundred Fiat 500E electric vehicles aren't going to turn the trend around. See, Chrysler has once again finished at the bottom of the list when it came to fleetwide fuel economy among automakers for 2014 model-year vehicles, according to a preliminary study by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Chrysler and Fiat had an average of 21.1 miles per gallon. That substantially lagged the overall 24.2 mpg average, but it was an increase from the company's 20.9 mpg average last year and the 20.1 mpg average two years prior. For 2014, General Motors had the second-worst fleetwide fuel economy at an even 22 mpg. Fiat Chrysler does say it's working on improving its fuel economy, according to Automotive News. The company plans on making its inline-four-cylinder and V6 engines smaller, and will sell more vehicles with eight- and nine-speed transmissions. Heck, there's even a plug-in hybrid version of the Chrysler Town & Country minivan in the works for late 2015, and the company can tout fuel-efficiency gains with the Chrysler 200 and Jeep Cherokee. We would be remiss if we didn't note that, compared to its muscle-car forefathers, the Hellcat actually performs pretty well at the pump. Last month, word got out that the 2015 Challenger Hellcat, equipped either with a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission, got a combined fuel economy of 16 mpg. Heck, the automatic-tranny version got 22 mpg on the highway. And that's for a car with 707 horsepower and a 10-second quarter-mile time. Still, with the pedal floored, the car can burn a gallon and a half of fuel per minute. Ouch.
Chrysler recalling 2009-2010 Ram 1500, Dodge Dakota pickups over axle pinion nut
Mon, 08 Oct 2012Chrysler is issuing a recall for the 2009 and 2010 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota pickup trucks due to improper installation of the rear axle pinion nut. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a total of 44,300 trucks are affected by the recall, and there have been 12 confirmed incidents including one crash.
The issue on both trucks is that the pinion nut is loosening on some trucks due to a lack of thread adhesive, and it is causing the rear axle to lock up resulting in loss of vehicle control. NHTSA's recall notice says that eight incidents occurred at speeds over 35 miles per hour and most also exhibited driveshaft failures as well since the loss of the pinion nut would cause the gear to separate from the driveshaft. In one complaint, the driveshaft separated from the rear axle and punctured the gas tank.
Chrysler will begin sending out recall notices to affected owners in November, but scroll down to see the official NHTSA notice.
