Odometer turned 140k miles on our '09 GC last night, all driven by my wife and I. :) My '05 GTO is about to hit 120k miles, although I'm not the original owner.

Passed 150k miles on the way back from Florida on Sunday. My parents' '08 T&C only has 75k miles on it, but they mostly use it for road trips 2-3 times a year.

172k miles on our '09 GC, running smooth now that I had the right front wheel bearing assembly replaced. Just like the left front unit, I couldn't get it off the spindle using a slide hammer and penetrating fluid, so I had a shop do it for a couple hundred. I really hate taking our cars to a shop if I can avoid it, but at least I have one I can trust. :)

Good choice! Looks a lot like my parents' '08 T&C. They have the 4.0 engine with most options, including a tow hitch they've never used (nothing to tow).

So far, 168,400 km I've had the van for three months and have driven it about 1,000 km since purchase. There was another 400 km of vendor back and forth nonsense.

I bought it for road tripping and it warms my heart to see show melting. We're getting closer to road trip season...."just" nine more weeks.
I love taking road trips in our van. It's been to 36 states so far, but haven't gone the last 2 years between scheduling it with the family and COVID.

New to the group, and just purchased a 2014 with 89K on it. Still runs and drives like new. I'm taking it to a transmission shop tomorrow for a drain & refill.
Make sure they only use a Mopar equivalent ATF+4 fluid and not some generic automatic trans fluid.

New to group, just purchased 2013 T & C touring L. 103,000 Hope to be able to take some camping trips with her. View attachment 62885
Welcome to the forum! We haven't camped in our van, but we've taken it on camping trips with my son's Boy Scout troop. Plenty of room to bring everything we needed.

88k miles on our '08 T&C. Just replaced the 2 original tires that my parents hadn't replaced. The guy at the tire store said they looked good for being 14 years old.

Our '08 T&C that we got from my mom last year (after dad passed away) just turned 90k miles. Still rides really good since they typically only used the van for road trips. It was in great shape as dad always took it to the local Dodge dealership and had a good relationship with them. Only things I've done are changed the engine oi/filter recently, changed the trans fluid/filter and installed a Dorman oil pan w/plug, and had the 2 original tires replaced (can't figure that one out, but they were just hitting the wear bars at 80k+ miles).

Our '09 GC had the lifetime warranty, although I think we only used it once or twice. My parent's van that we now own also has the lifetime warranty.

94k miles on our '08 T&C. Did the oil change and tire rotation on Saturday, plus greased the brakes and checked the pad thickness. Going on a road trip to Georgia in September for my niece's wedding, van's ready to go.
