<\/a><\/p>\nI really like this minivan. Yes, it’s a minivan, and some people who don’t have kids like to make fun of them. But for a family with two or more kids, I think a minivan is the most useful vehicle one could get. That’s why they’re so popular! We’ll use the van to haul the kids around and the Fit to commute to work and school. <\/p>\n
The Caravan, which Brenden tentatively named “Larry” after the Veggie Tales cucumber (I don’t know), seats seven. The boys ride in the second row bucket seats, and we’ll normally keep the third row down flat to provide a huge amount of cargo room for strollers, diaper bags, and the other stuff we need to haul around. It drives well, is in really good shape, and is a nice blue-green color that we haven’t seen on many vehicles. Its stereo has more bass than the Fit’s, so I was pumping some Snoop on the way home from the dealer. (I should have rolled the windows down and leaned the seat back) <\/p>\n
We got it from Huggins Mitsubishi<\/a> and actually had a really pleasant experience – low pressure, fair pricing, and a good sales guy named Tim Kellar. We had Christian Brothers Automotive<\/a> inspect it prior to purchase, and they couldn’t find a thing wrong with it. We’re very happy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We are back to being a two-car family with the addition of a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT. I really like this minivan.
