What engine does your caravan have? I've got a friend at work with a 98 Durango that just turned 200K, but he doesn't seem interested in joining the club.

It has the 3.0 V-6. I drive it to work everyday since gas has sky rocketed.

It gets between 20 and 25 mpg on the highway. My Dodge Ram gets about 12 mpg which is why i'm still driving the old caravan.

Soon wifeys 99 Grand Voyager SE wiff 173k .. damn rattling in the front end drives me nuts. Had to replace the passenger side electric window motor ... about 400 beans .. but thats about it. Im whispering, by the way !!!

Welllllllll I did forget .... at 17k the tranny went- REALLY BIG BANG coming down from a hill in Boone NC in 99, does that count ?

My father (retired from St. Louis North Assembly - Midwest home of the Ram) has a 1994 Dodge Caravan with 323K on it. Drove it back and forth from work everyday. Faithful oil changes every 3000 miles which was about 3 weeks of driving. It has the 3.3L and the engine is still running hard today. Only thing done on it was motor mounts at 225K and rebuilt tranny at 283K. Guess he has to join the 300,000 mile club.

My '93 Caravan with the 3.3 just blew a head gasket at 198,255 miles; ran it hot as a result, so the engine is toast. Just figure at this point it's not worth fixing with those kind of miles. Close to the 200K mark, but no cigar yet.

Ive got 2 and some change, runs great, trani's been replaced about 17k ago keep up the maint on it. Almost still smells new inside. But its that damn back left spark plug I always end up throwing my socket across the garage after the first 45 min of trying to change it!

Just bought my mini in july ( a 97 dodge caravan with a v-6 ) and .. lol .. I am allmost ready to join the club .. I have 178,000 .. but Ive got some transy issues I am working on right now...

RE: 200,000 Mile Club
 

Toecutter, I can sympathise. I had to pull the alternator to get that darn plug!

I guess I will introduce myself and my baby. I'm Sherry and my Lucy (97 Caravan 3.0 6 cyl) hit 200,000 miles Tuesday morning. At 200,002 miles, she quit on me on the highway. Still haven't figured out the problem, but I'm pretty sure it's a fire prob since I've totally ruled out a fuel prob.
