Whether you have a growing family or one that needs more space to accommodate frequent road trips and children’s activities, many families select minivans as their vehicle of choice. You may think that, as long as your minivan is reliable, safe and roomy, it’s no different than the next. But there are many features you should look for when shopping for a minivan that take reliability, safety and space to the next level. A few of those features are:

• side curtain airbags
• adjustable anchor safety belts
• fold flat third row seating
• automatic side doors

We looked at several things; engine & engine compartment, hood & body style, fit and finish, drive train & suspension, and bed and towing. Guess what? The RAM beat all three of them, and I also sell Chevy Silverados.

Here were the things that really stood out:

1. everything in the engine compartment is clearing marked and colored to stand out. So when you go to do something as simple as checking the oil, the cap is bright yellow and labeled perfectly. Same for everything else, transmission fluid, wiper fluid, brakes, etc.
2. everything in the engine compartment was easy to reach and the compartment has a well designed front cover. No worry about getting dirty or getting your clothes caught on a bolt or other engine part.
3. the HEMI, yes it has power and with the multi-point displacement beats all of the competition when it comes to fuel efficiency.
4. the hood, yeah I know it seems simple, but the hood on the RAM opens and closes solidly. The Ford F150 hood nearly shook the whole front of the truck apart. The Chevy did better but the RAM was just the best and its style stands so far out from the rest.
5. the interior is just flat out better than all of the rest of the trucks. A lot less hard plastic and so much more refinement. Controls are placed where they easy and sensibly accessible. The electronic display just flat out blasts the competition away. Whether checking on fuel efficiency or checking the pressure of the tires, the other just didn’t have it.
6. the bed of the RAM has no seems and no bolts sticking out, I never thought of that. The bumper has lights embedded so that they are not broken and the hitch comes standard with accessible trailer connections.
7. the fit and finish was outstanding. The seems of the body parts were better and with 3 seal layers the interior was so much more quieter that the rest.

The Dodge RAM has learned so much over the years and applied the right solutions in the right place. It was by far the better choice between these three pickups.

Well I think Chrysler’s “Imported from Detroit” is at the top of the list, no question. So lets talk about that commercial and more importantly the vehicle in that commercial, the 2011 Chrysler 200!

We’ll make this a multi-part series so lets start with the interior.

Chrysler did an amazing job with the interior of the Chrysler 200. The interior has a new instrument panel, upgraded seats with better-quality leather and cloth seating materials, “soft touch” armrests and electronics that go beyond expectations.

Here are a few shots of a Chrysler 200 at New Smyrna Chrysler:
