Also that's a high price for the trim level and miles. I would keep looking. You should be able to find an LE with 120k for that price or better.

Thanks! I would definitely be looking at considerably newer/lower mileage Dodge at that price point. It's just a tough call to say how much can offset the difference between the makes.

I kind of felt like the price was high, but I'm also not in a huge market with a lot of Siennas around that age.

>implying the dodge caravan it's twin the town and country aren't the best selling minivans since ever

If there's one thing Chrysler did right, it was the Minivan. Hell, VW paid Chrysler to rebadge the T&C as the Routan instead of engineering their own minivan for the U.S. Market.

Well damn. Thanks for the advice. I've tested a couple of Caravans and they seemed to be falling apart compared to the Toyotas.

May need to try a couple more out.

I'm failing to see the Problem here.

A lot are just driven into the ground while being poorly maintained. The 3.3L is a workhorse though and will soldier on though, there are tons of '07 and earlier T&Cs with over 200k.

Truly, an amazing piece of art.

Coming from an family whose Mother has owned a 2006 Sienna, I never had anything wrong with ours, the only thing I remember us taking it to the dealership for is for tires, brakes and suspension, oil, and changing out the struts.

We got rid of it when it hit 122,000+ miles because my dad felt it "was tired." We now have a 2014 Sienna and we have not had any problems with it.
My dad also wanted to get a certain trim of the 2010 Sienna because it was not de-tuned, which made it BMW fast according to him.

I'd say go for it.

OP here again.

So your advice would be (with the 6-7 grand I have to spend on the van) to go for a newer/lower mileage caravan than for a similarly priced Toyota? Maybe I'v just been drinking the Toyota kool-aid?

>>14194235
Ha. Thanks for the post man.

Whatever you do don't go past '07 on the T&C, the '08+ is worse. Thinner brake discs that require replacement more often, fucked alignment that eats up tires and a/c/heat problems.
