      If the back hatch is open for too long the button does not work on purpose...it is supposedly a safety feature. They got tons of complaints about it so there is now a software fix that changes the timeout to be longer. You can go get it updated for free at the dealer.

    Interesting fact. It's widely assumed that minivans were the choice of "soccer moms" and the category has nearly died because males opted for SUVs. In fact, the opposite is the case. Market research indicates that males appreciate the versatility of vans and it's women who shifted their allegiance to SUVs out of a belief that they were "safer" than vans, provided more visibility with elevated seating, and didn't stigmatize women who drove vans as those soccer moms.

    Nice review. I think though you would have been better off to review the Limited AWD with the two rows of stowNgo.. The Pinnacle might have slightly nicer seats, but one of the top reasons to have a minivan is versatility. As you pointed out, you can't remove the middle row seats in the Pinnacle. In the Limited and the other trims, you can fold them into the floor and have 8 ft of flat cargo space. Try the box test then and see what you get. I have the old Grand Caravan kind of squared off minivan, but stuff I've been able to haul around and still be able to seat 5 people is pretty impressive. Can't wait for the Carnival review. Keep 'em coming.

    As a parent of 3 kids (that are now grown) and a previous owner of 3 minivans as well as a few SUVs I can easily say, the minivan is a far superior vehicle for families. Get over the stigma. Why drive a inferior vehicle just because you think it makes you look cooler? When I see families with SUVs I don’t think they are cooler, I think they are stupid and more interested in image over substance. Now that my kids are grown we don’t need the space of a minivan so my wife now drives a small CUV because she likes the higher seating position she got used to in the minivan.
    Last point, I owned 2 Chrysler minivans and 1 Kia Sedona (not the Carnival). The Kia was a MUCH better vehicle than the Chryslers that both needed their transmissions replaced.

    I miss (or will miss) the Dodge Grand Caravan. Wish they would have updated it instead on cancelled it. Parents bought a Plymouth Voyager back in the 80's and I have owed 3 dodge mini vans since the late 90's. You can't beat a mini van when you have kids or need space. I do prefer the older "wagon" Pacifica then this version.

    Loved the minivans (Honda Odyssey - '09 used, then '15 new) when the kids were babies. So much room for everything, sliding doors... Now that the kids are 12 we've moved on from Minivan Life to a new Outback and we're NEVER looking back. So much more comfortable, fun to drive... However, can only fit maybe 1/2 the cargo - those vans are huge - so for camping we have to mount a rack to the tow hitch to fit everything (kayaks on the top). Only time we miss the minivan is for cargo, otherwise the Outback XT Touring is where it's at when the kids get older.

In fact, the only engine I'd take from them is the Hemi since it's been in production so long that they've pretty much got it perfected. Outside of a Viper, I refuse to buy another FCA product.

The manual says it'll happen after a "few minutes", which I've experienced, but the other day I had the gate open for 2 hours and the button still worked - so who knows. I was laughing when I saw it.
