I have, on two separate occasions in the last two months, had the opportunity to spend some quality time behind the wheel of not one, but three Dodge Caravans. All three were of similar specification and I believe all three were 2011 models. All three were rentals, two from Enterprise, the third from Hertz. I drove the two from Enterprise locally in the course of work over a four day period in the week leading up to Christmas. The Hertz rental was used to carry a recliner from Houston to Dallas. The last time I had driven a mini van of any kind was on a high school spring break trip with a girlfriend and her family back in the '90's. The funny thing about all these mini vans? None of them were absolute crap. Granted, there was a great deal of torque steer, and plenty of understeer, and the steering in general was pretty numb, but overall not a horrible experience. This may sound like faint praise, but I was truly impressed, and more importa...
Some charming bits that explain how I got here.
