2012 Chrysler Town & Country

My 2nd Town&Country, won't be my last...

By jennaandboys (VA) on Friday, June 14, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 80,000

Pros: "*VERSATILITY*, comfort, mpg, roomy, can't beat it!"

Cons: "Make sure you go w/big engine or deal w/sluggish"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Only gave slightly lower marks for driving dynamics due to my van having the smaller engine (wish I would have gone with the larger one, as this is a little slow to pickup on interstate). Other than that, I love it! The rear power windows are awesome. Has every option I need, and it's a base model! I know you get the "but it's a minivan" judgement... until people ride in it and realize just how versatile and comfortable it is. The stow n go in 2nd and 3rd rows is a LIFESAVER (I can't stress this enough)! I can put the rear seats up or down in about 10 seconds flat, and have storage under the 2nd row floor for umbrellas, backpacks, basketballs, or whatever. My 10yr old loves that his seat reclines (something our old T&C didn't offer). I don't have the power doors or liftgate on this one like I did on my 1st, but I still love my van anyway. Plus, there's plenty of room for the kids AND the lab! :) And the best thing about a minivan.... young kids can open their own doors and you NEVER have to worry about them accidentally hitting the car next to you! Can park in tight spots and still get out because the doors slide back. Gotta love the mom-mobile! :) I recommend this vehicle so highly, I recently helped my sister-in-law buy her Town&Country, exact same color as mine! ~ 32yo mom of 3 sons and 2 step-sons"

Among the best cars I've owned over the last 45 yr

By Paul (VA) on Monday, June 03, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 70,000

Pros: "Form, function, reliability EXCELLENT"

Cons: "Boxy appearance."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Appearance is a bit boxy, but in terms of function, reliability, and comfort, it's a TEN! I've owned Fords (which I love), Chevys, Chryslers, a Plymouth, Pontiacs, a BMW, a Volvos, and a Fiat. This car competes with all of them. Problem free, except the direction light on the right mirror keeps falling off. Could be poor design, or parking lot damage. Either way, annoying as can be. Buy the maintenance package...worth every nickel."

I always swore that I would never drive a van.....

By Van Mama (MO) on Friday, April 19, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 76,000

Pros: "Great features, automatic sliding doors and hatch"

Cons: "none"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"This vehicle is everything I could have hoped for. I have 2 small kiddos and the sliding doors are a dream come true. With the remote, I can slide open doors or the back hatch. The seats fold down easily for extra space as well. If and when this van quits me, I will purchase another one just like it! I have had no issues with the motor and it is a smooth ride."

Love It and GREAT GAS Mileage

By Cool Mom (MS) on Monday, April 15, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 67,500

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"I have owned my Chrysler Town and Country for 4+years and absolutely love it and so do my kids. All their friends can pile in from baseball and football games and etc.. and go get pizza without any problems. It is great on gas mileage and doesn't take as much to fill it up as the SUVs. It is such a win win situation with this van. I can't say enough about it, and no Im not a granmother I am 28yo and I am considered the cool mom! Thanks."
