I love when guys do reviews and have no clue. "Its not that smooth of an engine.... you used to see these in Jeeps... it could be due for an upgrade". Dude, do your research before you review something like this. The 3.6 vvt pentastar is the most powerful and one of the best engines , if not the best, in its class on the entire market right now.

In my opinion the T&C is Great. My family owns TWO of them, a 2008 and a 2012 and they both are wonderful to drive and ride in. The 08 has at least 114k miles on it and it still runs great. Yes the transmission can be rough at times but who really cares? As for the 2012? Just hands-down great!! Where else can you possibly find a minivan that comes with DVD, touchscreen, great engine, power doors, STANDARD at $25k? Excatly.

The 3.6L is a great engine! 283 HP....more than enough. The constant comparison between mini vans and sports cars doesn't make any sence. The fact that the rear latch operates the gate manually is genious. All other manufacturers should follow suit. Key fob, close button inside and buttons up front...that's enough. I like that I can grab the latch and throw the gate open quickly. I'd pick one of these vans over the Honda or Toyota just based on bang for the buck.

Terrible video for a really nice mini van. At first I thought it was going to be a nice review in regards to how good mini vans are at doing most everything good such as having more cubic inch room that a Suburban. Instead it seems people that review the T&C cut them down for just being a mini van. Such a dense statement in regards to the engine needing an update how dumb can someone be. Even the 3.8 was a good engine one of my 4 mini vans went 177,000 miles with it and was still going strong when I purchased my 2013. This review reminded me of one your partner did on the 2014 he tested when he claimed the second roll of seats did not adjust for and aft. I work as a K-9 officer for SAR of not just humans but other things. My department purchased my T&C to carry not just my K-9 but our gear and it like the others I have used takes a beating. We tried a Honda a few years back although it was a nice vehicle it could not take the every day abuse our officers put our departments 4 other mini vans through. You could not even di scribe the second roll of seats being a no cost option that the van u tested had. If one orders or locates one with the rear matching the front seats instead of the stow and go seats you still have the storage where the seats would fold into the floor. On a scale of ten being the best and 1 being the worst I would rate your review a 3. It sucked and you claimed to have had this van what a week. Oh one more thing what good is a power lift gate if the battery is dead thus the manual operation of it you complained about. Plus if it's pouring rain one can open it manually quicker that they open by pushing a button. BAD review just as bad as the review of the 2014 like I so stated. This is my last time watching your poor reviews and others should follow in my opinion. Thank You

Engine "Due for an upgrade" ? Someone needs to do some research, the engine is just 2 years old and has been on Wards best engine list 2 years in a row. That isn't the old 3.8L that was shared with the older Jeep Wrangler that you seemingly think it is. The 3.6L Pentastar is one of the best V6's you can currently buy.

wrong on the fact that you have the option of manual on the liftgate, if you don't want to use the power option, is it that hard to actually open it from the latch? No, I own a 2012. Also, the engine is not rough, it came out in '11 in Chryslers accross the board, all Chrysler, Dodge, Jeeps with the 6 cyl had the new 3.6 pentastar V6. That was the point, a world engine with better torque, hp and fuel economy, so what do you mean it is what was in the Jeeps? It came out in 2011 all the same time
@madjak3011 жыл бұрын
I think you were a little wrong with your statement about the rough & unrefined engine...you are thinking of the old 4.0L V6, not he pentastar. You kind of changed your tune about it later in the review when you were driving. As for the soft or vague steering, it's a luxury minivan, not a sport sedan...check the demographic that purchases these vehicles. I had an '02 Grand Caravan and it was a great vehicle for when we had kids & dogs...wish I had a new one, but wifey is an SUV lover...

Even with it off the trans will downshift going up almost any grade. Needs more hp/tq. The center console could be bigger and the armrests are too small and too hard. It handles better than the 2010 van we traded for it and the ride is MUCH better. The interior is much better too with the electronics nav screen and two DVDs.
