Replying to: dakota29803 (Jun 05, 2006 1:21 pm) I have owned Caravans for the last 11 years, so that is not a problem for me. Replies to this message: bolshoimac (Jun 07, 2006 3:26 pm) dakota29803 (Jun 07, 2006 5:31 pm) dianicess (Jun 07, 2006 5:21 pm)

Replying to: calibreath (Jun 05, 2006 10:29 pm) Yeah, I guess I'm confused too... I'm 6' tall and can't see the hood of a lot of cars, though I used to own an early-70s Datsun 280z... all you could see was hood Not sure I see that this merits removing a car from consideration. You get used to it very quickly. Replies to this message: dakota29803 (Jun 07, 2006 5:31 pm)

Replying to: calibreath (Jun 05, 2006 10:29 pm) I drive a Chevy Venture Minvan at work - can't see the hood at all. At least with the Caliber, you know it has a substantial one and it gets a 5 star front impact rating. You have to adapt to any vehicle you drive. I love height of the car-it's just right! Smooth ride!

Replying to: bolshoimac (Jun 07, 2006 3:26 pm) Well I have owned over 25 cars and trucks and on every one of them I could see the front fenders. I guess I am too old to learn to park by intuition.

Replying to: dakota29803 (Jun 05, 2006 1:21 pm) That's because like a lot of Chrysler Products the car has a "Cab Forward" Design which pushes the Cabin Further to the Front of the car to create more interior space. My Neon is the same, trust me you get used to it pretty quickly and it's a small price to pay for more interior space. A lot of new cars (all brands) are like this now.   BTW: I'm 6' 0" & I didn't find this to be a problem when I test drove the Caliber as I'm used to it from my Neon.

Replying to: k3lli3 (Aug 02, 2006 11:20 am) Goto Dodge.ca locate retailers by inputting your postal code. You can look at retailer inventories and see what options each vehicle is equipped with and how much. Word of advice-if you don't want to wait for one then buy one on their lot,otherwise you could waiting for 16 weeks on custom order as I have been doing. Good luck!!!
