[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I struggled with the minivan mom identity. I even put some silly stickers on it to poke fun at myself. But with young kids and especially infant carriers the big sliding doors in parking lots are a life saver, especially postpartum. I hate dealing with our outback doors now. I think the Subaru people have their own image of camping every weekend that rarely materializes. We did the Toyota Siena hybrid minivan base model (cloth seats) and they’ll be prying it from my cold hands. Gas savings is a nice plus too. [/quote] I think this is wise. I would pick the Subaru (we have a smaller one) but don't have a large family. The people I know who have gone for the minivan with some wincing have universally loved it. I can see the benefits of what PP is saying if you have multiple small children. And agreed that many Subaru owners want you to think they're going home to strap on the kayak just as soon as they get home from this Trader Joe's run, and that's its own kind of cliche.[/quote]
