[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its nice to have an SUV.  What is your budget?  Don't go to small especially with stroller.[/quote]

It's also nice, and considerate, to care about the planet your kids will have to live on.

Almost no one needs an SUV.  Our 15 year old car gets better mileage than even the Hybrid SUVs that are on the market and has more than enough room for everything we do.

Yes, I’ll never understand that. We’ve had a sedan and a hatchback with our kid, and in both cases, it’s been very easy to get the stroller in and out. And while getting an infant seat in and out of a car is never super fun, it didn’t feel uniquely more difficult with our car than my IL’s SUV?

But to me there is a real advantage to a lower vehicle once kids are 2 or so. Our DC has been crawling in and out of the car and her car seat since then (she’s 3 now). We don’t have to help except with the buckle. That’s not an option with an SUV that sits far off the ground, not until older.[/quote]
