  New Pacifica - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Vincent - January 3 - 10:43 pm

  I really like this car. It is a pleasure to drive. I have a fully loaded version and all the features are great. You really feel safe in this car and in control of the road. I get about 22 MPG highway and about 17 around town. If you drive with the engine cold, it is very thirsty, but this resolves once the engine warms up. The rear DVD system is a lifesaver with my son, get it if you have kids. The rear bucket seats are great and very comfortable. The navigation system is well worth it, but mine did "get lost" twice, and I had to shut off the engine and restart the car to reset the navigation. Acceleration is moderate, but for transporting kids, it is just fine.

  Hate to see it go - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Lee - October 28 - 8:38 pm

  So far this has been an absolutely fabulous driving and riding vehicle. Wife doesnt ask to stop every two hours to stretch and walk out the kinks. Gas mileage is not bad (22.7) on trips as long as you dont use ethanol. In 34000 miles the only problem is with an electronic sender that tells the torque converter to lock. Warranty covered. Hate to see them go, may drive this one into the ground.

  Best Car I ever had - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By No - September 8 - 8:13 pm

  This is a great car. I was in a very serious accident and needed a car that would feel and be safe for me and my daughter. It is. The only issue is gas mileage and some poor rear visibility. Best Car I ever owned. love It

  Great! Not a problem - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By EBM - August 4 - 10:45 pm

  Best car. Had it almost three years and not one problem (how often does that happen). Drives great, fun to drive, mileage good for the weight and size (17 city, 23+ highway), plenty of room, quiet, fun to drive (did I already say that?). Took it on three long trips and was a breeze. Felt very secure, true to the road, couldnt ask for a better car. Lease is up and I dont want to give it up. Might have to buy another one.

  So Far, So Good - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Mike B. - July 7 - 10:26 pm

  I had driven a Pacifica Touring AWD from SW PA to Dickson, Tn on several occasions and took a few different routes to see how she ran. I had my favorite time through the mountains of WV. It has an excellent ride shared with its Benz siblings, is quiet, and has beautiful interior. I have a Signature Series with two tone gray/black leather and aluminum trim where the woodgrain usually is. Gas mileage is OK for a 4500 pound machine, but the 19 inch tire option will kill you, $250.00 per tire! Using the Auto Stick it is peppy, but if youre not used to a revving engine to make power you may find it sluggish. It serves my family of 4 plus the neighbors kids well!!! Overall a great product!

  Great SUV crossover - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Cindy - May 28 - 1:13 pm

  Its a fun car to drive. It handles well in snow. I like the idea of having a minivan size but a SUV look and handling features. Its comfortable to drive with lots of storage and plenty of sitting.

  Love This Vehicle! - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By JuliaL. - April 6 - 10:30 pm

  I bought this vehicle slightly used in 2006 and have not a single regret! I have three children and the space is perfect, not to big or small. The gas mileage is great, I use synthetic oil. This vehicle is a dream for a single mom like myself, very reliable. Not a problem, not a complaint here!

  Excellent SUV Alternative That Tows - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By E & S - March 21 - 6:18 pm

  Excellent Styling. Come on guys it gets very decent gas mileage for a 4400 plus vehicle. Great to show up at a wedding with, or tow your boat to the local ramp. Plenty of power with 250 H.P., however you some what feel the weight of this beautiful beast on a steep incline. I feel the designers of this vehicle did not market this vehicle right from beginning to end, if they did they would consider future production of the Pacifica with improvements. Shame on you marketing team.

  Great car - 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
  By Walt - February 24 - 12:12 pm

  Rides and drives great, very comfortable on trips, had no problems with it, better than an SUV in the snow. Grandkids love the DVD and heated seats in the back. We are very satisfied with this vehicle so far. Consumer Reports shows poor reliabilty for 04 & 05 models, but great tests in 06, I think they have the bugs worked out.
