RE: AutoBlog's review of the Caravan SXT
This interior quality issue always bugs me. I've been in a Toyota minivan before and it's nothing but plastic, the same with Civic's, Corollas, ext.Is Japan's plastic better then American? It all seem the same to me. Heck my Friends new G35 is cover in plastic inside and it's never mention in reviews. It always seems Jap cars can get away with having cheapplastic ininteriorsand American cars can't, theres a double standard.

RE: AutoBlog's review of the Caravan SXT
hahaha SO true about interior plastics!
Also, I have a 5 speed Auto-Stick in my Nitro and you DON'T have to put it in 'N' to get the trasmission out of 'Auto-Stick' mode and into 'Drive.' So, either for some strange reason that system works differently in vans, or this guy is a huge retard. All you have to do is hold the gearshift at the '+' side of the gate, and in a little more than 1 second(!) the transmission changes to 'Drive' on it's own. No neutral involved.

I thought it was dumb of the guy to say "who would want this in a minivan?" for the auto stick. They are trying to make the vans more sporty and appealing to guys instead of the normal soccer mom, the auto sick is really a really cool feature.
