I found that the regular 93 had pretty good ground clearance, esp with the shorter wheelbase. (I have a Grand now, and it has the same or tighter turning circle, but is otherwise not nearly the paddling vehicle.) I recommend the 93-95 Caravans. 92 was the same basic model, but IIRC a few more problems.
