Wait a minute…this is a model of a town & Country that you built, right?

Seriously, hope your wife enjoys the mini van.

Town and Country ?? I was expecting to see something that was around 23 feet long, had fake wood panels on the side and a 400+CID smogger V8 that made about 160HP at the flywheel and got 8 MPG coasting down a hill...lol

Nice! We've thought about the minivan thing a few times. We haven't gone there yet, but if we were to the T&C would be a strong contender. Very nice ride man! Happy wife happy life!

Yes the stow and go feature allows the seats to fold flat so cargo capacity is very good should I have to haul something big.Once my wife saw it on the lot she had to have it.

Very nice. We put 13 years on the distantly related '93 Plymouth Voyager. The gaskets were never removed, it never burned a drop of oil, it was reliable and bridged the gap between family sedan and pickup truck. My wife loved driving it too, which is important. If the T&C is as good you've got a winner.

What is strange is it does not have a conventional key;it has a usb type that goes into the dash.Nice that it came with two.The power rear deck lid and doors are a nice feature.

Ya. My Ram has the same key. Both of my other cars have that thing too. My other cars sense the key is near and unlock the doors when I touch the handle and I don't even need to put the fob in the slot, the cars will start with or without it placed there. On one of the cars there isn't even a slot to put it in. Just leave it in your pocket, or purse rather, that's the wife's car. Crazy the technology in these things today.

Shouldn't that be guitarS? I would think 2 or 3 at least (unless it is a vintage Martin or the like).

My wife is expressing interest in a small SUV, like a Honda CRV. Was that ever something you ever considered?
