For everyone who rode in a 1998 dodge caravan in their childhood, and have nice memories, tell yourself that even us, who were adults, it represents a better time, when the world was more optimistic and the life seemed to be full of promises for the young family we were. It seems strange that a car crushing video bring back an overflow of happy memories from a simpler, perhaps more naive time. "Time goes on and never comes back" as they say.

@@ultrawidemods5175 I do agree at some degree. People nowadays just buy parts new, maybe not OEM but some cheaper brands instead of old. It's worth more recycling all the metal that's why they crush to pile it up and ship to a melting factory. Parts can lay around for years for never to be sold even tho if it's sold the profit would definitely be much MUCH higher than selling those crushed cars per ton.

There's a good mix of emotions here. On one hand, I'm sad that it has to happen this way. That the memories associated with these vehicles have become nothing more than scrap. On the other hand, I know that it's just a car. They're machines that are meant to be used and then re-used at will. On my third hand, I'm happy that these vehicles were used for their intended (or unintended) purpose. It's likely they allowed people to live an enjoyable life. I can't be upset about that.

This makes me sad see a car go to the crusher no matter what it is 😢.

[@brentboswell1294]

Ok, I'm dumbfounded, how does one Dodge Caravan end up with two donut spares? Is this a joke? 🤣

[@Bobby-cm7vu]

The stock steelies on them pieces of shit I'm pretty sure

[@sweetpadre]

The junkyard sold out the good tires and rims.

[@kb01663]

I saw a Dodge Caravan at Walmart once with one of the wheels held on by 2 lugnuts, had 2 broken studs and another lugnut missing

[@nicholasrhodes4550]

Owner needed tires, so he went borrowin' round the trailer park...donut spares were all anyone could...spare. A day in the life of a Dodge owner...

[@jamesprice2163]

I e had a car that has four donut spares and 8 lug nuts on the entire car (two per wheel cause the lug studs snapped off) ... Gotta love Saturns

[@Pontiacman1964]

After all that, those caravan wheels just won’t give up.

The Stratus still had a shiny paint job for sitting a long time (look at the time flattened tire)

Probably had a blown motor, shoddy electrics, bad transmission and the worst offense of them all ... It's a stratus/intrepid (dogshit cars even when brand new)

I'm just wondering from recycling point of view, are they just packed there and then ran through a shredder later on or what happens? As they crush plastic etc with the cars.

Very relaxing to watch after a very bad week! That early 2000s Olds Intrigue is like one I owned. Loved that car.

Do all the fluids get drained before crushing? How are the cars disposed of after crushing?

[@pete_5225]

Damn, these cars actually have some parts that were worth selling, like side mirrors, tail lights, windows, seats… This video is satisfying but sad at the same moment, even though I don’t own any of these, I’d still make a use of their parts

[@mistermood4164]

I doubt there any demand for Chrysler parts from the 90s to mid 2000s as most of them have been junked lol

[@sweetpadre]

The junkyard crushes the cars when people are no longer taking parts out of them.

Very few are still on the road and there's no demand anymore. Handling and storing those parts is not viable. Old Interpid and Voyager won't become a cult car in the future either.

Usually glass, plastic and wheels/rubber are removed before crushing. They can be sold separately and it’s easier to sell the crushed shells as pure metal.

Either google fucked the translation up, or this guy wants to see how many people can be crushed by the crusher. To be fair, when someone buys a car, the joke is always about how many bodies you could fit in the trunk.
