The Chrysler Town & Country

The Town & Country underwent a substantial transformation in 2011, with new front and rear styling, a new engine and suspension, and a vastly improved interior. One of the oldest nameplates in production, the Town & Country name has long evoked fine living, from the jaunty convertibles with real wood body trim in the 1940s and 1950s to the yacht-sized wagons last seen in 1977 to the woody-effect K-car wagons and convertibles of the 1980s. Reborn as a luxury minivan in the 1990s, this is the status the Town & Country holds today, and it retains the class to itself.

So when we found out Sassy Moms in the City had an opportunity to drive a 2012 Chrysler Town & Country for a week, we were excited to hear her reaction.

After a detailed instruction demo by Chrysler’s local team, my head was spinning. How did they manage to include so many features into one vehicle? It’s been over 10 years since I’ve actually shopped for a car and unfortunately my husband’s company car, never includes any cool or intuitive features. Hey, it’s free so I can’t complain.

The technology in the Town & Country is beyond amazing.  DVD players are one thing but the ability to accommodate 7 people, hands-free entry, power sliding doors and tailgate, stow n’ go seating (both the 2nd and 3rd rows fold down) and a hi-tech media center are just a few features that made me realize it could be time for us to purchase a second car.
