The Ford Windstar would be a better choice or the GM vans from that era if you're looking to stick with domestics. Reliability is a problem for most of the Mini-vans but the Dodge/Chrysler variants were the worst IMHO.

lol, chrysler minivans with transmissions that go at 100k kms or sliding doors that wont completely unlock or not completely close.... we had two like that, a 91 and a 95.
99 Chev venture had rust issues 2nd yr along the door seams on all the doors, worse on sliding ones. Otherwise quite reliable. Mom rear ended someone with it, busted up the bumper and grille, only cosmetic damage but she still managed to crack the radiator(?). Traded in for a 2005 venture(uplander).
2005 uplander, my youngest sister fell in between the door and the body straddling the door arm, the automatic doors tried closing but with her in the way they opened back up, but they couldnt fully open so they tried closing...this cycle happened about 3 times by the time my mom heard her screaming in the garage... transmission went at 7k kms, replaced under warranty. front discs and pads were replaced under warranty @ 14k kms. She had it for 8 months and traded it for a used yukon.
