A slide into third, when the team needs a home run

Introduction
Dodge Grand Caravan – 2008 Review: Dodge is swinging for the fences with its latest Grand Caravan. After unwillingly ceding an advantage to its Japanese rivals, Dodge wants to dominate the segment again, throwing all its engineering talent and resources at the all-new 2008 model. With new features like Swivel ‘n Go seating, LED lighting, and satellite TV for the kiddies, it’s certainly packed with stuff. Yet after a week with the new van, it’s clear that while the features are there, the execution isn’t. At a time when Dodge is desperate for a home run, the new Grand Caravan is desperately sliding into third.
