We got rid of the minivan this January for a small SUV.  Many time have we wished for the minivan. As dorky as they are, they are3\ great for some tasks...  A minivan can hold as much cargo and passengers as a full sized Tahoe or Suburban. Handles better, better fuel economy

 

But yeah, they are dorky

Just replaced our 2002 Windstar with a 2010 Odyssey. 3 kids makes it hard to avoid minivans, because I'm not buying an SUV big enough for 3 rows of seats. Would not buy a new Sienna or Odyssey - way too freaking expensive.

I put my foot on the gas pedal of my Hummer in order to cause more global warming. They lead to more snowstorms according to a paper.

Scooter should get the least environmentally friendly auto ever. I will subsidize 1/3 of his gas expenses.

Ford F350 global warmer. Something that raises the global temp .05C per every other commute.

We should all do our part to really jack seasonal totals up or rack up more ku's. im making a habit of flicking on as many lights as i can in peoples homes i go to as well as really accelerating off the stop signs and green traffic lights

I do that in college in the empty rooms. I also turn on the hot water faucets so that more nat gas is used, creating more pollution.

There is just a point and time when you just have to realize you can't do it...and this week has shown me alot. I just can't do it and I just don't know what to do

Wiz i think u set ur sets to high for this week locally, i think chasin to just nw of albany would be sweet tmrw

That's the thing...I think people get me all mixed up. I love severe, and I would like it but I recognize the potential. But b/c I assist the skywarn team from BOX, a d have done that since 2008, I worry about anywhere in the BOX area.

I think there are more than enuf brite minds that can assist the box skywarn team on a day like today when only the "far northwestern interior " is lookin like much will happen. Maybe i dont understand ur post, bc it sounds like ur saying u cant chase where storms are likely to be (hudson valley, far nw ma, s vt because there is a chance a few renegade cells could fire throughout sne (not like u would have tine to chase a cell by hubbdave unless u were nearby) and so u wont take ur eyes off sne to chase outside box ? Like ur the skywarn batman of sne? Anyway it was confusing and thats prolly not it since u chased a month ago w friend in albany area. if i was in HFD today and was in need of general tstorm excitement ii would head nnw toward albany and watch the show, but i wouldnt expect much svr

Seems like most of the area has been fairly tame and the S.S isnt really necessary outside the dacks. Sure one 3 mile wide area in west central mass saw 7 inches of rain one day but 99% didnt see that. Even nne seems void of the big rain totals that some were concern'd of in a more widespread fashion and powder freak doesnt seem to be getting the big totals it look'd like he may

LOL. Congrats on the new wheels. Don't tell me you turned in your truck already?????

 

I've never had a minivan. Drove a Highlander which had good space. Sometimes needed to be creative coming back from Home Depot with stuff, but always got it in.  Regardless, I felt like less of a wuss driving an SUV.  :)

 

I passed it along to my daughters a couple months ago and picked up a Santa Fe. I got the Sport. It's smaller than the Highlander, but the 2.0T is really good, would leave the Highlander in the dust.
