I was just wondering what the highest mileage anyone has received from their Dodge Grand Caravan.
Personally I purchased a 2006 over 11 years ago with 97K, today it will turn over 378K, original engine and tranny and it still runs like a top.
The body is starting to rust away from winter driving no matter how hard I've tried to keep it at bay.
This is my 3rd and they all made it over 200k.
Let me hear from ya!
I have 493,000 miles on my 2014 caravan
 
My four Grands have never reached that level of "experience" when I owned them but I had a '95 shorty that I got as a company van with 27K on it and took it to well over 300K in a few years. Loved the little Mitsubishi 3.0L cammer engine in it much more than the pushrod 3.3 and 3.8 in our later vans and I was changing the oil monthly back then when driving 1,000 miles per week. I still recall the impression I had the first time I sat in it when it was assigned to me: perfect fit.

Our current '15 DGC is pretty good but at my age I probably won't be driving long enough to rack up massive miles unless I spend my remaining years on repeated coast-to-coast runs for the hell of it. Not a bad idea, actually, but driving just isn't as much fun as it used to be.
 
I had a 1999 GC that has 212,000 miles on it when I traded it for my PT GT. Man, what a mistake that was. That was a great van and I still regret making that trade.
 
I have 462,000 km or 287,000 miles on my 2013 Grand Caravan. Same engine and same transmission with no major repairs required for either. Only engine code is for catalytic converter. Still gets up to 26 miles per gallon highway. Best vehicle I have ever owned.
 
I have a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT with 226,809 miles on it. It has been driven from Pennsylvania to Orlando Florida and back 13 times between 2007 and 2019. It would have more miles on it, but since Covid and I work from home now I rarely drive it. Of course, I purchased a 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan GT with 88,900 miles on it in 2022. I now have 118,000 miles on it. So it gets 99% of the driving.

I purchased a 2018 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT in December 2023 and was alternating driving on 4 vehicles, now alternate only 3. My 2006 DGC is 900 miles shy of my 400k goal. NO engine and trans problems since purchased 17 years ago, Since having to give up it's garage space and sit outside the body has gone to hell, headliner is falling, and the drivers seat is starting to thin out. Drove it yesterday , temp was 10 degrees...fired right up and was driven 50 miles, it's a trooper!
