Hi!
One thing I like about the Caravan is the very easy access for parts anywhere in North America. I suppose this is true for many other brands, but for Caravan, it is a fact.
But I would not say that it is a very good vehicule for towing. I consider that the breaking system and the transmission are weak.
My 1996, 3 liter, 3 speed transmission has almost 300K Km on the odometer. To get those milleage with a Caravan transmission, according to a mechanic that I know, you need to be very smooth, specially never spin the weels on snow or ice and change transmission oil and filter often.
Still, I am looking for a newer car now and it will probabely be a Caravan. I like this car.
I also like your idea about a switch for the cooling fan, Owen.
