Minivans with an AWD option are a great alternative to SUVs that get far less MPGs and less interior space and comfort. Too Bad that Chrysler ditched the Grand Caravan nameplate and replaced it with the Pacifica nameplate in the USA, while it is still the Grand Caravan in Canada. I agree the beige.tan or light grey interior color is far much better than the basic black or charcoal interiors offered in most vehicles nowadays? The Stow N Go seating allows you to bring home large items from the Big Box Stores without the need to have a pickup truck. All this vehicles needs is a larger center screen for easier viewing. Nice Review!
Thanks for your comment. I’ve never understood the hate for minivans. It is such a practical layout. And you are right. With the AWD option they are capable of going where most SUV’s can go and are especially great in bad weather. For most families it is the best option but image holds a lot of sway for some people.
For a 2017 your Pacifica still looks like new! My Dad just bought a fully loaded 2022 Pacifica Touring Limited Edition with the S package and with AWD option. Ours is triple black absolutely love ours! Was a formerly leased vehicle but we got it for a decent price compared to what these go for brand new! And ours is as close to new as new goes. Awesome van! I also agree the Chrysler Pacificas are still the nicest looking minivans on the market compared to other competitors vans.
@@MondayNightRAWsRKO2024-xk9ew Thanks. We bought ours a year old with low mileage and were able to save a fair bit off of the new price. I think they are the nicest looking vans inside and out. My dad owns a 2019 with the S package and it looks pretty slick. I am glad you love your van!!
@ that’s a good idea. I might just do that. His is a Touring L without a lot of the features that the limited has but is still a fantastic road trip vehicle.
I agree that Minivans are a fantastic road trip vehicle. Too many people buy into the mommy-mobile stigma and end up spending too much money on an SUV that gives them less space, worse handling, worse MPG’s…all in the name of trying to look cool. (Yes, I now have an SUV and a Truck, but we had Honda Odyssey’s for most of 2004-2019.)
So true. I’ve heard many people say that minivans are not manly or cool but I believe that a real man buys what is the most functional and practical vehicle for his family instead of what is deemed to be cool. I like SUV’s and trucks too but nothing has been even close to a minivan as far as comfort and function for road trips.

@Go4It123 should do a video review on his to compare would be sweet
