ask them the difference between a minivan and an suv for good measure then point out that they're both built on car chassis these days they could just go full quiver full

It's getting hard to find reasonably priced conversion vans these days though, SUVs have made it tough to find one in good condition used, the market is so much smaller.

in fact 4 of those will probably fit in the boot of the car so you'd still just need like a hatchback or something

Awia posted:why would you need an suv when you've only got 2 kids? Basically anytime friends or family visit you end up having to use two cars for everything because the stupid suv + car seats leaves no room for a 5th or 6th person. Also, minivans mean my kids don't slam their doors in to every car in the parking lot.
