Keeping the 2011 van going (lemmy.ca)

Bought used in 2019. Not a Honda or a Toyota, a Dodge Grand Caravan. Given how many examples of the previous Caravan body type I still see on the roads (at least 17 years old), I think I will have it for at least 4 more years. It runs well and I keep it maintained.

It's only annoying quirk is that the "check engine" light comes on for a few days whenever we have a lot of rain and high humidity.
