[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You said “ We are not particular about non-value factors like the environment or owning something 'cool' like an EV” But it sounds like you are particular about those things bc presumably a minivan is no longer cool (even if it meets your needs best) and it sounds like you are exclusively focused on EVs.[/quote] At this point, you're just trying to save face.. Let me rephrase: - I have a Honda Odyssey. - I want to replace it with something that has similar features. - Don't care about Elon, Environment or cool but want to know if Model Y is "worth it" and will meet my needs - If not, what other SUV's would you recommend? I covered all of the above in my OP (please re-read). If you don't have helpful answers, let's end this dialog. :lol: [/quote] We had a minivan in the past (Sienna) and now have a Model Y. We love the Model Y but it does add time to longer trips (super charging takes longer than getting gas) and more planning is involved. It is NOT a good car if you need 7 seats. Assuming you have captain's chairs in the minivan, you also can't beat the convenience or the height of those for putting kids in and out of car seats and all things related to car seats. The Tesla is only bench seats and they are significantly lower than a minivan captains chairs. If you need 7 seats for a tall family, your best non mini-van bet is a Suburban or Yukon XL but that will drive your gas costs in the opposite direction of your goal! [/quote] OP. Thanks! The suburban and Yukon are huge! I don't think we can accommodate that footprint in the garage. We'll have to revisit those again this year. [/quote]
