[quote=Anonymous]How often do you buy new cars? The third row is helpful for mass carpooling (sports teams, take 3 friends to the pool, take neighborhood kids sledding, each child brings a friend to the park) and situations with a lot of gear (sports teams, road trips). That tends to start around 2nd/3rd grade, when kids are able to travel in just a low booster (and sometimes nothing at all, depending on height and seat fit). And it happens more with SAH/PT parents, simply because of timing and logistics. If you get a new car every year or two, wait a bit. If you and your spouse both work FT, wait a bit. But if you buy and hold a car for 10 years, either get the bigger one now or see if you can drag your feet on the purchase for 6 months, until you settle in to your new neighborhood and see how things go.
