| We have two HSers and a college student. We still go lots of places as a family and we do family road trips every year, so we need something that is spacious and comfortable enough for 5 full-grown people. I prefer a used vehicle under $30K. Any suggestions? |

| If you're looking for comfort, minivan. Especially if your kids are tall. |

+1 We've on our second sienna. We got the first one in 2011. They are such good vehicles. |

No - we have a 2014 Highlander and my teenagers scoff at that 3rd row. |

| I have an SUV with 3rd row, Honda Pilot. For 5 adult size people though I would do a minivan. |

| I have fit adults in the third row of my Pilot. Maybe take the kids with you to try it out. You won't have much cargo space, though. I have a friend who got a Suburban because she found the minivan was too small for her family of 5 with all their sports gear. I imagine it would be the same for a road trip. |

+1 Highlander’s third row is a joke, and when it’s up you can barely fit grocery bags in the back. Definitely not a vehicle for road trips. Agree with the minivan posters. More leg room than even a suburban. |

| You must have a minivan. You can’t squeeze a full sized human into a third row. They’re for small kids. |

There's a difference between being able to jam adults into a third row when needed and being able to fit adults comfortably into a third row for longer or more frequent trips.
You need a minivan if you want the latter. The third row of a minivan, especially the middle seat, gives you a lot of room and is a lot easier to get in and out of than the third row of a SUV. |
