Choosing a Family Vehicle

You may feel a little pressure when choosing a new vehicle for your family. Every member of the family has had lots of input. Now you find yourself standing on the lot with the weight of a decision on your shoulders.

Don’t worry! Our knowledgeable staff at Vatland in Vero Beach knows how to make everybody happy and still give you what we know families are looking for: safety, affordability, reliability, comfort, and technology. 

Safety

Nothing in the world is as important as your family’s safety. We have you covered with standard and available safety features everyone can appreciate. 

We use the best safety information available to implement innovations that reduce the risk of injury, like front and rear crumple zones that help absorb impact energy and redirect it from passengers. Other standard features for our Dodge Caravan: 

• Head Restraints

Active front-seat head restraints that move during a rear-end collision to decrease the space between your headrest and head to help reduce the risk of head, neck, or spine injuries.  

• Standard Airbags

Seven advanced multistage driver and front passenger airbags with supplemental front and rear side-curtain airbags, a driver-side knee blocker airbag, and front seat-mounted side airbags also come standard on our vehicles, protecting you and the passengers you love in case of an accident. 

• Parkview Rear Back-Up Camera

You’ll never hit the bicycle left in the driveway again! Shift into reverse and the Parkview Rear Back-Up Camera provides a wide-angle view with on-screen gridlines of the area behind your vehicle, making rear parking easier and safer than ever. 

• LATCH System and Protection Door Locks

The Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) System helps make it easy and quick to get your child seats positioned correctly in the vehicle every time.  Child Protection Door Locks add to the safety of your vehicle by preventing curious little ones from opening back doors from the inside while the car is in gear. 

Affordability 

Budgets are important – to everybody – and there is a vehicle for every budget at Vatland Chrysler Dodge Jeep. Get a good idea about what you’re looking for by looking through our extensive new and pre-owned inventory. 

If you are looking to finance your vehicle, we know how to help.  

Do a little research to help take away some of the uncertainty of financing. Find out your credit score, analyze your monthly budget, and decide on a reasonable payment you know you can afford. Use our available financial planning tools to help focus your search.     

Call our trained finance professionals at any point for helpful suggestions that might alleviate undue worry or anxiety. We are here for you.

Reliability 

There is nothing more frustrating than getting everybody ready, out the door, and safely seated inside the car – only to have the car refuse to start. You can rest assured that this will not happen with our brand. Last year, Dodge secured a place in the top 10 list with above-average reliability ratings for both the Challenger and Grand Caravan.  

With regularly scheduled service and maintenance, you can be confident in knowing that Vatland’s service technicians will make sure you get where you need to be. We open at 6:00 AM on Monday through Friday and don’t close until 6:00 PM, with 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM appointment availability on Saturdays, too. 

Reliability is a big deal. Make sure you’re scheduling maintenance appointments regularly to avoid a more costly fix down the road. We are here to help!

Comfort 

All our vehicles are built with your comfort in mind. Detailing packages vary, but all have luxury in common. With lots of legroom, temperature controls for both driver and back seat passengers, not to mention power windows, doors, and even liftgates, we know what families need to stay comfortable.  

Some of our vehicles also feature an available dual-pane power sunroof, ensuring everyone gets a breath of fresh air or a starlight view. 

With standard and available options for increasing luxury, you won’t be disappointed. In our 2020 Dodge Caravan, favorite features for families include heated power exterior mirrors that stay frost- and ice-free, and when parked, the 60/40 split-folding third-row seats have an available tailgate feature that flips them rearward completely, providing plenty of space for tailgating season! 

Technology 

Technology is important to everyone, and we have lots to choose from. Available Uconnect Voice Command and Hands-Free Calling allow you to operate your phone, entertainment, and navigation system completely hands-free. Additional USB ports are available for installation, and wireless headphones are included with the Dodge Caravan available overhead Single DVD Entertainment System – perfect for those long holiday trips. Don’t forget to ask about available SiriusXM.  

No two families are the same. Most folks know what they are looking for. Give us a call at Vatland on South US-1 in Vero Beach, and we can help you find it.
