The new sealing design “Stow-n-Go” is the most conve nient seating on the market. The second and third row seats fold flat into the flixir leaving a perfect platform for cargo. The lower floors make easy side-door access for loading and unloading kids, pets, gro ceries and other cargo. Chrysler has pro vided many safety features, like numerous cargo nets to secure items. The optional curtain-type airbags protect the occupants in all three rows of seats, and the inflatable knee blocker adds protection for the driver. When it comes to moving com binationsof people and stuff, the Chrysler Town & Country has no peers. Many features add day-to-day con venience, making life just a little bit easier. A time delay switch leaves the headlights on while you walk from the van to your door. A uxiliary outlets, two up front and one at midship, provide pow er for gadgets. Four large hooks make picking up the dry cleaning an easy chore. The available overhead console houses pow er sw itches for the 180-hp, 3.3 liter V6 or 205-hp Engine; 3.8 liter V6: 4 speed automatic Transmission w/OD; 19 City/ 26 Highway MPG; $36.000 MSRP.
