In the one where Dr Z drives around the reporter, he puts both at risk and crashes the car, and doesn't even check to see if the reporter is really ok, blithely leaving the car. With the ad where the man in his front yard asks Dr Z a question, Dr Z comes by, disassembles the car, leaves a mess and the car disassembled, and leaves. When he is in the ad addressing the children, he isn't funny, the ad is so busy you don't NOTICE the cars are muddy, so even adults don't get the joke until the fourth or fifth try. Then the kid asks if his moustache is real, and he never answers her. Dr Z is portrayed as not just knowledgeable, but arrogant, not caring what messes he makes or leaves behind, and unconcerned about anyone else's concerns. Who would buy a car from a company like that? And since the ads are so busy with so much going on visually, you miss the discount message entirely.

They help us learn many of the fine features offered in a witty fashion. Lighten up critics! After all, re the reply to the kids about his own moustache and the "dirty cars" - "It's a Joke".

I think the Dodge Caravan is one of the best minivans invented - so comfortable, convenient for towing just about anything, and yet not too bad on the gas mileage. Bought one back in 1996, drove it for 9 years, then sold it. Missed its convenience and comfort so much we had to buy another one this year, even though our kids are now grown up -- and I must say the driving handling and engineering features on it are better than ever!

And have NEVER dreven anything else. The idea that German enginering is better is bunk. I have a 1999 Dodge Dakota, and it doesnt have a Chrysler transmission. It must be a German trans.

I looked him up, and there was only things about him in the Dodge/Chrysler commercials. I say 'drop the "Dr. Z" thing'. It's just too phony. By the way, why do they have a German/Turkish guy endorsing an American car? At first, I thought this guy was from the Nobel Prize or something (not Dr. Nobel, but you know).
