Replying to: ateixeira (Nov 12, 2007 8:32 am)  My biggest issue was the lack of any kind of room when facing rearward. There really wasn't any to speak of. My legs were under the rear bench, which means nobody could sit across from me. If I had to pick, I'd take Stow N Go any day of the week. Much easier to use, much more useful in general, and less of a gimmick.

Replying to: thegraduate (Nov 12, 2007 1:01 pm) I'd say most people who haul big items know in advance and can just remove the front two seats. At least that way you get a comfortable 2nd row. And the swivel is great for families with kids, which is the main consumer of minivans in the first place, not folks needing a cargo van.

Replying to: bobw3 (Nov 13, 2007 9:40 am) No one who's ever been in my van's 2nd row seats has complained about comfort either, nor have I seen many complaints online from Chrysler owners. I've hauled friends back and forth to Toronto now a few times - no issues whatsoever. Seems like it's always the concerned owners of competitive models, who don't actually own a Chrysler, maybe sat in them for all of 5 minutes at an autoshow, voicing that opinion. The people who actually voted with their wallets, are those who's opinion counts a little bit more.

well let this be the first---my parents own an '06 DGC SXT with stow and go (they are retirees who like the flexibiilty). They love the vehicle but do say that the rear seating is rather uncomfortable for them, which they only have to deal with when they go someplace with me and my family. I personally think the drivers seat is uncomfortable, too.

Replying to: dennisctc (Nov 13, 2007 1:33 pm) What are you doing here? I do not recall a mention of a competing brand in the message to which you replied. These forums are for people to express their opinions. If you do not like that expressed opinion you do not have to read or reply. It seems to me that you have carried on a years long crusade in favor of the Chrysler vans for as long as I can remember. When was the last time you owned a competing model? You have bashed me along the way for my stated refusal to own another Chrysler piece of junk due to my personal ownership of two consecutive models from the early and mid-90s saying that those are not representative of today's models. When I would rent a current model for business I would be told that those models are not indicative of the rest. What about the model reviews posted by various magazines? There is so much negativism directed at Consumer Reports, a magazine which actually purchases their test models and accepts no advertising. Yet, when a favorable Chrysler review is printed by a magazine which is loaned a tester and gets paid to print advertisements it is touted as the holy grail. What will be said on here should CR print a glowing review in its upcoming 2008 Chrysler minivan review? I said this years ago on here that most people will not admit to making a $30,000 mistake and down their vehicle in front of the world.
