[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From your comment about parking, I am wondering if you have strong glasses.  I have strong glasses and would never get a minivan.  I stick with the smallest car I can because I just can not judge distances very well.  If this is the case for you, please explain this to your husband.  He may not want a dented-up minivan...[/quote]

Yup, I wear contacts. I told DH about the blind spot thing but he's 6ft tall and he just doesn't get it. I have to twist and turn like crazy to check over my shoulders and I was never comfortable driving a car with extra rows. Too much margin for error.

To the "few inches" poster - I drive a SUV so I feel like I can see things around me much better. When I drive sedans and mini-vans I feel like I can't see very well what's going on around me. It's hard to park because I have to keep twisting and turning. DH travels for work and comes home every week with a different car. We've driven every car under the sun through out those 7 years and we picked our current car based on one of those experiences with his rentals. I tried driving an Odyssey some time ago and could not stop laughing. At the highest point on the seat I could driving either looking under or over the wheel. The top of the wheel was almost at my eye level!  :mrgreen:

Anyway, I guess if I mention the dented bumpers he'll stop trying to convince me ;)[/quote]

Sorry, you can't drive a sedan???  What's the point of continuing this disussion.  If you can't even drive a sedan, there is no point in dragging a whole group of posters through your car selection process.  Obviously you need a car with a barber chair in it, or the next best thing.[/quote]

Bad day over there? You should be glad it's almost over...[/quote]
