Dodge Vehicles

get a v6 Journey if you are looking, it's basically the same as the Grand Caravan that is a cockroach (IE they run around everywhere and are nearly indestructible). I just had to replace the from the factory battery in my mothers '16 GC for her last month finally, otherwise hasn't needed anything but basic maintenance so far.

I agree with this. Had a Grand Caravan for years as my first "family" vehicle (3 kids) and it was unbelievable. Bought it with 90,000 and at 230,000 miles, I was ready to move on. It wasn't worth much, but I don't trade vehicles until the vehicle tells me it's time to trade vehicles, so I kept it. I literally did not change (or add) oil from 230,000 to 290,000 when I finally traded it in and honestly, the main reason I traded it in was the tires were shot. Currently have an '18 Pacifica that is well on its way to one upping the Caravan. 242,000 and really the only non-routine maintenance has been one set of new batteries, which was shockingly expensive (2 batteries with the secondary battery very, very, very, very hard to access).

But like everyone else says, it's really a crap shoot. The only make I will never own again is Hyundai. The lawnmower engine in the Elantra is crap.
