    Didn't get a chance to drive a 2008-2010, but the 2011 truly makes you question how one can design such a large vehicle to drive so well.

      @ChryslerBLOX Рік тому +2

      The dual TVs were still there in the 2011 I think.
      If not then it can still be put in. My moms originally had just a black tv but then they replaced that with a tan matching one and they added the rear one too.

    this is the first time I've seen anything about the swivel seat! I love that! I understand they cannot be stowed, I guess we can't have everything 😁 , but I was curious about the set up in this video - was the other seat removed for filming or is the other seat stowable?

      @@mikehurt3290 You overpaid. A decade-old minivan is not worth $10,000 unless it has only around 30,000 miles on it. The only people that would even try to sell it for that much would be a used car dealer that would be taking advantage of a naive and uneducated buyer. Sorry for the bad news. Did you even shop around? A quick on craigslist will show that they can be easily bought for half of that.

      @RobertJohnson-th2yf 3 роки тому

      @@mikehurt3290 Sorry to hear that you didn't have enough money to buy with cash. When you finance, you then get caught in a vicious cycle of poverty. You have to finance, and that's very, very bad. The car dealers know that you don't have any other choice so they charge much more than the car is worth. The interest rates are probably not good either. So, by not paying cash, you end up paying about twice the price when you include the interest, loan origination fees, etc. etc. Then in a few years, you again won't have enough money saved to buy with cash, because you have been paying off an overpriced vehicle for the past few years.
      You have two choices, continue to get taken advantage of financially and give your money to used car dealers or straighten out your life and get your finances in order. Save your money, cut expenses, learn to do without. I don't know you, obviously, but I can take a guess how you live your life...don't think long term, impulse buying, buying based on emotion not logic, want instant gratification, etc. Don't take it personally, a lot of people were never taught to act differently. Oh, why did I make these conclusions? Well, the fact that you bought a top of the line, most luxurious, most bells and whistles, Limited Edition minivan...when you don't have the cash to even pay for it. Do you also get the latest smartphone and finance that instead of paying cash and actually buying it too? You should be saving up and buying a basic, entry level, nothing fancy minivan with cash. It won't be pretty and it won't be enjoyable but that's what you need to do. Good luck and I hope that you end your cycle of poverty.
