I'd like to know who has owned (or owns) a Chrysler Pacifica and how you liked (like) it. Was it reliable? How many miles have you put on it? Etc.

Since moving to MI, it appears that I may need another 4WD or AWD vehicle. Last spring I drove a Pacifica and really liked it. We came across a good deal on a 4Runner and bought it instead.

I was scared to buy a Chrysler for everyday use. I had a 1995 Jeep Wrangler that killed me with trouble. I bought it new and within 86,000 miles I had to put 3 transmissions in it. Chrysler knew about the problem with the 4 cyl model transmissions (1987-1995, faulty oil slinger), but never did anything. My Dad has had 2 late 90's LHS's and has had quite a bit of trouble with them too. Basically I told myself I would never buy another Chrysler product. Last month I bought the SRT6 though. Since it will not be driven much - I wasn't too worried about reliability, etc. Daily drivers are a different story though.

We have had wonderful luck with Hondas and Toyotas, but I really like the Pacifica and they lose their value pretty quick which makes them a good used buy.

Any help is appreciated.
