I'm hoping this turns out to be a much better experience.
The old adage of never buy the first model year (especially American)usually holds true. My 04 Sienna was delivered with a bad power outlet and will need to go in the shop again for a pulley/belt squeak on the first start of the day. Lets hope we beat the odds with the C. I was VERY concerned about the MDS, but I read that DC put over 6 million test miles on the Hemi (not on one engine ). With that and the 7/70 engine warranty I am rolling the dice. The plan is to keep this car 5-7 years and stop buying so many cars.
