[Editor's Note: In this tough economy, choosing to by a used minivan is a smart move, since buying new means you are facing up front depreciation costs of up to 25% the second you leave the dealership. Instead, check out eBay Motors. They have hundreds of listings for used mini vans and finding vehicles in your area is as simple as entering your postal code.]

Are you looking for a used Dodge minivan? I was and in my search I had to go online to purchase one. Let me explain how I came across my used minivan. A few years ago I found a 1993 used Dodge Caravan for sale which I bought for $850 with 130,000 miles on it. The tires were fair and it was not in bad shape as far as the body was concerned. I loved driving that Dodge minivan and put another 30,000 miles on it with nothing more than normal upkeep expenses. In fact I would still be driving that baby if an Orkin truck had not run a stop sign. I t-boned that pick-up and rolled him over. My Dodge minivan’s airbag went off and the seat belt harness worked like a charm. I was able to walk away with only minor cuts and bruises. Unfortunately, my Dodge minivan was totaled!

I decided rather than replace the Dodge minivan I would buy a small pick-up with the money I got for the accident. Big mistake! Although the truck has done what I wanted it too I was just not happy without my minivan. That little Dodge was so nice to drive and the fuel mileage was great especially compared to the pick-up.

I began to search for a used Dodge minivan for sale in my price range. I figured somewhere between a 1993 and 1999 would work. Trying to find what I wanted turned out to be far more difficult than I expected it to be. I finally went to the internet to locate what I was looking for.

I eventually ended up purchasing a Plymouth Voyager which of course is identical to the Dodge minivan. I love it and am so glad that I am finally back driving a vehicle that is actually fun to drive. Yes, you heard that right there is a minivan that is fun to drive and extremely reliable. When I am not driving the Dodge minivan I am riding my Harley Davidson Fatboy which is way more fun.

So if you find a used Dodge minivan for sale, (or Plymouth Voyager) grab it right away don’t let it slip through your fingers.
