FWIW, Warren Brown is syndicated, so he's not working directly for the Detroit Press by any means.
 
Having said that, he's generally easy to please. He is practical so this is exactly the type of vehicle that would generate a positive review.

New VW Minivan aka Chrysler by dennisctc
Feb 05, 2008 (1:23 pm)
VW Minivan
 
I don't see much difference, the IP is nicer but not up to VW standards....too much Chrysler bits.

I see some improvements.
 
The styling is a bit of a mish-mash, though. Round front and rear with a boxy middle. They tried, but didn't really succeed in making it look different.

Looks BETTER than ANY Volkswagen I have ever seen...and MUCH MORE attractive than anything Toyota builds....even though from the rear it looks too much like a Sienna.

The new VW Minivan will also be MORE reliable than the Volkswagens I have owned.

I need help in deciding :
  
- I am getting Ody EX 08 for 399(tax incl) for 36m/15k miles/ zero down (no even 1st month payment)...Is it good?
  
I am debating whether I should spend that kind of money or go for TC /Dodge caravan 08 models for a 27 month lease. What is the competitive rate for leasing those minivans?
I have not driven them but their reliability seems to be an issue; we drive 70 miles a day and we live in NE ohio where winters are sometimes little bit harsh. We dont have much leeway at work and hence reliability and maint...
 

 
I would think twice about leasing if your putting that many miles on it a day. Usually if you lease, they only give you 12,000-15,000 a year and charge you by the mile over that. It could cost you a fair amount of change depending on how much you go over the alloted miles. You might find it better to buy. Check it out first.

People say the worst thing to do is buy a new car, but even worst is leasing one!! Do you really think you are only paying for the time you use it? Why is leasing pushed so heavily.
 
The "perception" of reliability of the Chrysler is just that - PERCEPTION. I can list so many totally satisfied Chrysler minivan owners, many repeat buyers of 20 some years!!! In ANY brand you can find some bitter "I bought a blah blah blah and it was a piece of crap blah blah blah, and I'll never buy another again"!! Considering the mileage you're putting on, if you're planning on keeping it long term, consider actually the Chrysler lifetime warranty - it might be a good choice.
 
You may want to go drive all minivans - it's totally free and see what feels best for you. Then check out this site more for deals. I've seen in the Chrysler forum people offering "friends" discounts on them.
