[quote=Anonymous][b] TLDR: What car do you have if your spouse/children/you are tall? [/b]Particularly our issue is sitting behind my DH when he is driving.

We've had two consecutive Honda Odysseys and they have been great. DH is 6'4" tall and does the bulk of our road trip driving even though its my daily car. Our two teen DDs are now taller than me (they are both 5'7" but with long legs.) They used to be fine riding in DH's midsize sedan but now don't like to sit behind the driver seat because he has to sit so far back and their legs don't have enough room. They complain about who has to sit behind him so we don't ever take that car all 4 of us any more.

The new Odyssey and new Sienna are too wide for our single size garage door. Same issue with Suburban/Expedition, plus just too large and pricey for us. Kia Carnival minivan will fit and is nice but exterior styling is a bit odd to me (I guess I can get over this.) The Chrysler van will also fit but I'm concerned about long term quality and reliability. The top rated SUVs for second row legroom are Telluride and Palisade, but both still seem to be getting dealer markups. We keep pumping money into our 10 year old minivan to kick the can down the road, but I'm sort of at a loss for what's next.

At the end of the day, I just need 4 really comfortable seats for tall people and a car that will fit in my garage.
