2 kids, minivan?

[Anonymous]

On my second minivan about to get my third, with two kids who are now 13 and 10. I’ll probably drive one until we are done taking them to college.

I am on my 3rd minivan with twin 15y olds. It has been great for everything from roadtrips to carpooling to bringing grandparents along when they visit. I plan on driving it for another 3 years and then getting a small SUV.

I never was cool so having a minivan never felt like I was losing status.

No. Minivans are lame. Yes they have a lot of space. You don’t need a ton of space for two kids. Three kids, fine.

Two teen kids and we drive a VW golf. A family with 2 kids has no need for a minivan.

No way.

I have 4 kids that are all older now so I've literally been driving a minivan for decades. Now the two older are in college and the younger two are in high school and I'm still driving a minivan (because it still runs great.) It is SUCH a waste.

We're expecting our 2nd and getting a minivan, but we have 3 adults in the house. If it was just the 4 of us I would stick with the RAV4.

We had twins and drove a minivan from the time they were 3m old-17y years old. Easy to get a double stroller in/out, easy to get kids in/out, easy to haul friends, stow and go seats basically made it into a truck so we could haul things when we needed to vs rent one, convenient when grandparents came to visit, I could go on and on.

I was so glad we had the minivan all those years.

Once our two kids got bigger, we needed the minivan space for car pools and family trips. That was 10 years ago and we've never looked back.

Respect the Van!
