i have seen alot of older dodge vans that are still going and have alot of miles on them and still look good. it is hard to say the best quality because either way you go something will sooner or later go wrong with it. i have had good luck with dodge as far as quality and durability. not knocking chevy but to me i would say the dodge would be the best bet. good luck

I'm a Mopar guy all the way, but as a former auto mechanic I tend to look at things objectively.

All I would say is that it depends on how the vehicle was maintained. Now Dodge has very strong engines and so does Chevy. On the transmission side, I'd have to give it to Dodge for longevity. I've noticed that a lot of GM transmissions, especially the TH250 and TH350 are known to burn up quickly IF they are not maintained properly.

In my opinion, If your looking to purchase either a Dodge or a Chevy, I would look at overall condition, maintanence records, etc.
