Seriously, they rock.
On...Love the sliding doors! Seriously, they rock.<br /><br />One reason I see for an SUV is if you're towing something. Jeff's talking about getting an SUV for our next for towing purposes, but I'm sold on minivans for all the reason you listed.<br /><br />We'll see, it's not like it's going to happen any century soon.Ticiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17970101432834731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8300076094657237560.post-33973533052278475212010-11-24T20:48:31.506-08:002010-11-24T20:48:31.506-08:00i am a "crossover" mom. we just bought ...i am a "crossover" mom. we just bought a crossover toyota and i love it.

A Ford Expedition. And I'm act...SUV mom here. A Ford Expedition. And I'm actually dreaming of the EL which is 18" longer. I'm not anti mini-van...it just wouldn't fit our family. My Expedition fits 8. A minivan would be rather squishy with 8. We bought it in 2004 planning on our #3 pregnancy. I had a 3yo, a 2yo, and a newborn. I didn't want to be climbing into the back to get a kid in/out of the carseat. We fit 3 carseats across. I could still easily buckle my 3yo until I taught him how to do it himself. Now that my kids are bigger (we've only got one booster left) I find myself with extra kids in my car all the time. It's so fun to be able to take a friend to the park or to carpool with another mom and her kids for a field trip. I couldn't downsize. But, I don't think a big SUV is for everyone.kmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02659183247879049382noreply@blogger.com
