Well, with the two dogs, it's kind of like having two kids already. And we want to sprog again. Plus, we're constantly doing upgrades/fixes to the house (they guys at Lowes know us by our first names)

Well then, yeah, a Minivan is fantastic for that.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I was going to say. Headspinny change of topic, anyone??

Not that minivans are offtopic here. And at least they are not SUVs.

Trust my rage

I felt guilty about buying an SUV last week - for about an hour. I totally love my new car (Honda Pilot).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, come on. How long have you been here? Bestiality is just a speed bump on the Topic Highway.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'd kind of like to get a station wagon if and when we're able to replace the Civic.

I'm not exactly looking forward to dealing with a carseat in a 2-door, but we'll have to for at least the first year or so. Or longer, depending on our finances. Right now, I'm slightly more concerned with getting the house fixed up enough to sell in two or three years than I am with having a larger car. (Partly because the car thing will be less of an issue when we move closer in.)

Dana, you know me. I am over here in prude corner giving the fisheye to off-color stuff since 1999. and knowing something is a joke is one thing - not knowing is squicky.

I have a dinky 2-door Honda Civic, and I don't find strapping kids into the childseats to be all that bad. OTOH, I never had to deal with an infant bucket with the 2-door. Getting that through the door and behind the seat could be tricky.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Don't. At least in the Ford family, minivan vs suv or full van vs suv results in very little difference in gas mileage. Not sure about imports. If I were to get an Explorer over a Windstar or Freestar, it would be about the same.
