2019 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN GT

It's been awhile since I have done anything to any of my vehicles.

My Mercury Mariner will be going to my daughter this summer after she graduates high school.

That being said, I bought a 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan GT, so far I have only put about 200 miles on it and it will be my daily for work and when we take family vacations!

I still have the C-max plug-in hybrid, my better half drives it to work since she only has to go 9 miles and she doesn't eco-drive.

The new (to me) van has performance suspension according to the window sticker, but I haven't tested it yet, still getting the driver's seat where I want it before straightening out some curves

Mods planned:

Window Tint with brow
LED Headlight bulbs
LED fog light bulbs
Still deciding on lower side stripes
still deciding on bug deflector

Hehe, never seen someone excited for their sports-van before.

A van is probably in my future in the next 1-2 years.

"Sports Van" LOL

Actually it is funny that you say that, I have had 2 other silver minivans, the previous 2 were a 1998 windstar (1 year only headlamps) and a 2001 Windstat SE Sport, I guess I'm a sucker for silver minivans...

I went to a show-and-shine one Saturday morning in Creswell, OR, and they had a minivan that had competed in the 24Hrs of Lemons.

The uniforms and livery adopted a soccer-mom aesthetic, but they had patches riveted onto the roof where they'd had to cut holes so the welds on the roll bar could be inspected.
