I have been reading everywhere that sales are so slow,that they are coming
out with a downgraded version, a base model so to speak no leather, no
navigation, no sunroof, no chrome, etc......

said to save $5-7000 off the price.

Fine with me. I think it fills a niche that never existed! :-)

You mean the World is not banging down their door for a grossly overpriced,
underpowered, mid sized station wagon. It started well over $10,000.00 too
high for what was and is being offered.

Pretty much. Chrysler has had its share of niche-creating/filling
vehicles, but I don't see the Pacifica as one of them. The minivan
created a new niche for a vehicle that could haul as much as the old
full-size station wagons, but with easier accessibility, more headroom,
better driving position and better gas mileage and space utilization.
Clear advantages over other vehicles with a similar purpose.

I just don't see the uniqueness of the Pacifica. It carries 6
passengers, in three rows of two rather than two rows of three as most
sedans. Big deal...

DC better do something quick. Who'd be stupid enough to pay 40% above the
list price of a comparably equipped Caravan and has less room? And all the
styling charm of a kitchen freezer.

It's now available in a lower-cost model (sans leather and awd); perhaps that
will broaden its appeal.

Its price was very competitive with the likes of Lexus RX and Acura MDX.
