Hey!!!! I've got a '08 Grand Caravan!
Mom's lease on her '05 was up when she was in the hospital with the cancer, so I returned it and bought an '08, she drives it, the down pmt. came out of her bank account, she makes the payment, but it's in my name - you could look it up...
Just for those comments, I'm gonna take pics of it this weekend and feature the thing in my album!!! I also want someone to nominate me for COTM for it next month!!!

Interior is really nice and even though I like the stow-n-go seats for the convenience of folding them under the floor, we got the swivel ones in this one because it's super easy to swivel a rear seat facing the door and getting my step dad from the wheelchair into it. I really do like it, wouldn't have one for myself though - I'm not that friggin old yet!!!
The new 4.0 V6 has got ***** too, I've already smoked a little wise a$$ in a Civic trying to impress his g/f. But yea, the gas mileage isn't even as good as my 4.7 H.O. Grand Cherokee...

I play golf with the sales mgr. I got the first '08 delivered on the lot with a sticker on the window of $32,400 for a tad under $27,000. Not a huge discount by any means, but with them just hitting the dealers last Sept. and no rebate or anything to work with, I didn't think it was that bad. Whoever got her lease trade in got a steal, I was actually trying to talk her into buying it out, she could have had it for $12,750, but she had it for three years and would have financed for three and she didn't want the same vehicle for six years. It was a fairly loaded '05, and because she got cancer a year and half into the lease, it only had 14,800 miles on it the day I turned it in.
What the sales mgr. did to help us out a little was he had us buy out the '05 for the $12,750 and turn around and trade it on the '08 giving us $14,750 for the '05 in trade, so that helped get the new one down from $27k to $25k...
