#751 of 2390 Scanner: Doubt that I will hurry to the Dodge dealer for anything other than excellent service by carleton1

As 2001 Grand Caravan Sport looks cheaper than my 1999 GC SE and has no Trip Computer option and a narrow, cheap rub strip on the side. I think the Chrysler versions are more attractive than the Dodge clone.
    We have had zero problems with our excellent 1999 GC SE in 24 months and dealer service is OUTSTANDING. It pisses me off that Dodge was so cheap to take off the Trip Computer, Compass, Outside Temperature on all but the ES. The EX is nice with the 3.8L V6 but I do NOT want the power center console, power lift gate, power sliding passenger door. If I can't have Trip Computer w/compass and outside temp, I just as well get the Odyssey LX or Sienna LE and have a much better trade-in value after 2 years if I want to get a newer minivan. After all, there are no Odyssey or Sienna used as rental, fleet, government use where they get abused and thus ruin the resale on a one-owner cream puff like I own.

Does anyone know if it is possible to order the standard wheelbase Caravan with traction control?

I don't think that's an option.

...are all manufactured by Johnson Controls.

Carleton,

I think trip computers are currently available only on models with power doors because it looks like the power door controls are now integrated into the new one piece overhead console. You may eventually see trip computers on other models once production gets up to speed. Look at how long it took them to get the cargo organizer production up to speed.

See the following link for instructions on programming the Homelink system. Just don't tell the Odyssey owners, as some of them think it was made by Honda.

#757 of 2390 differences by keygo

I am looking at buying an WAD. I have been shopping at a dealership that sell both Caravans and Town and Countries. I have gotten different information from different sales persons. One say the only difference is bells and whistles. The other said the structure is different and the ride is very different. Needless to say, they didn't have any to test drive. I would love any thoughts and information on this. I am looking at the Grand Caravan AS and either the Town and Country DX or LXi. Thanks
