Agreed, for heavy duty towing, there is no substitute for a truck, but for
lighter duty, such as towing my MGA racecar, the Chrysler minivan works just
fine. I agree, BTW, that a four cylinder version is useless - you definitely
need a V6.
The front wheel drive is also great in snow, and if you need it, 4WD
versions are available.
