Wow, that looks great! Excellent! A+!

Atleast we still know how to design trucks and vans, cause our cars and SUV's are going in the ****ter....

Yes, I'm VERY HAPPY about the hood this time!

The Caravan is very sharp too!

Honda and Toyota have been doing that for years...

For a minivan, it doesnt look that bad...the interior is much nicer than previous models though.

A few things

Negatives:
-The black B-bar needs to be less visible.
-B-bar black may fade
-Door handles should look sleek. Possibly 2 handles coming together to look like 1.
-Rims, are they 14's? They look very small.
-Rear bumber looks like a saggy old butt
-Front end looks blunt
-Where are the mirror turn signals on the Chrysler???
-Too much orange turn signal for the Dodge, let's see clear
-Wtf retracting antenna on hood

Positives:
-Aggresive hoods
-Stance
-Rim choice OK for minivan
-Maybe the roof will offer a large window?
-HID for Chrysler?
-Engine
-Styling

Why does any car need mirror turn signals? Aren't the two on the back and two on the front enough? Its kinda pointless anyway to put them on the mirrors.
