[quote=Anonymous]we were in your shoes 10 years ago. Kids 5 and 3, one on the way. But no hang-ups about a minivan; we simply like having the best tool for our needs, and that's obviously a minivan. So we've had an Odyssey since then, and we also have a CR-V hybrid now. No seven-passenger SUV can compare to a van in terms of comfort and volume and cargo space, and we travel a lot, and we're active, so we're usually packing it with a cooler, bike equipment (bikes are on the rack), tennis equipment, inflatable kayaks, whatever. It's ironic -- the SUVs are marketed toward "active lifestyle," but they can't actually fit the stuff you need for it. And of course our dog needs to squeeze in, too. The only real alternative is the full size, body-on-frame truck SUVs like the Suburban/Expedition. But you're going to add $20k to the price tag, and use twice as much fuel. [/quote]
