Laugh 2008 Mopar minivans look solid! Also, Shivvy and Furd throw in the towel!!

http://money.cnn.com/2007/01/03/auto...ex.htm?cnn=yes
I may be looking into one of these down the road once my Diesel Ram is paid off,
while not sporty, I much prefer the styling on the 2008 to the 2001-2007 style.
BTW, as mentioned in the above article, Shivvy and Furd quit the minivan market!! Too bad, losers!

Default Can't go wrong, Stoga

I drove several Dodge minis as shuttle driver for the dealer in Helena, Mt., Lithia Dodge. I can say that these vehicles are really good, reliable and popular with customers. Very nice drivers. You'll like it!
Now the new ones, with those slick interior features, should blow the doors off the crossovers. Fuel economy, utility and good looks should work for DC. Amazing how DC keeps re-inventing the mini, and it keeps getting better.

I rented one a while ago for a drive to NJ for my mother's funeral. I put about 3000 miles on it in 4 days. It was my wife and I, and 2 of my kids. The van was very comfortable. I really enjoyed driving it, and drivers fatigue was minimal. I was impressed. So much so, that I will seriously consider one when the 2008's come out.

About the only complaint Dad has had on their '06 is that the front end seems too soft in corners.

My wife and I liked the current Gen. of Chrysler mini's. I just hope that they improved how the vans ride. I always thought they were way to wobbly (top heavy) on the highway for my taste. I know that it is a van but I still think they could improve the handling a little. I do like the new look.
As a side note, I can't wait to see the new front clip on the magnum in person. From the pics it looks like it really improved the look of the car. It looks like chrysler is getting it's act together as far as the looks of some of their cars.
