We have a 2020 Pacifica (bought in 2019) and love it.
You do not need an extended warranty; your vehicle is covered for 3 years/36,000 miles. At that time, you can revisit whether or not it is necessary.

We absolutely love the Sto & Go seats. When traveling, you can store your things in them. Also, when flatten, it allows you to move a ton of crap when needed LOL.

Prior to this vehicle, we had a Chrysler Town and Country for 14years, so it was an easy choice to get the Pacifica.

Thanks! I’m nervous- we’ve only had Volvos, Mercedes and subarus (mostly passed down from my parents), never thought of a Chrysler!

Without knowing anything more, it sounds good to me!

Do you really need a van? My full size sedan holds a ton of luggage.

Ditch the extended warranty

Why are you looking at new?


Bc the used prices don’t seem that much lower. Maybe 10K lower, but no warranty.

The average new car price is like $38k. $50k doesn’t seem like a huge stretch for an upgraded minivan. Large suvs are $80-$90k now.

Can you get one used, like 2 years old?

Don’t spend so much. We spent $43,000 on a Chrysler Pacifica plug in hybrid and we got $7500 back in tax credits because it’s electric. It’s a great minivan.

Almost bought the sienna today but I’m struggling so much. How do I get over this hump? We need a new car.
