I learned to drive in a mini van and while out on my FIRST driving trip with my mom managed to rip off the mirror of a truck with the mirror on the minivan. Then and there I swore I would NEVER EVER drive a minivan. So far I have been able to make that happen. We have a sequoia, it has 4 child seat hold downs. We do not have kids (yet) but I do not plan to EVER drive a minivan. I will get a dreaded station wagon before I get a minivan! :)Seaexplorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06729336156736875080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-42210907329037887212009-06-24T11:07:57.705-07:002009-06-24T11:07:57.705-07:00OMGoodness, so, so, FUNNY!!

I mean I love it because it's big & I can fit all my kids in it and have them be safely buckled into their respective car/booster seats but I can't drive the stupid thing. I always park a million miles away from anyone so I can pull through and not have to back up. And I've hit my husband's truck - twice - while backing out of our garage.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00192972998727462569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-90603634388688061462009-06-23T22:28:51.153-07:002009-06-23T22:28:51.153-07:00i just had to drive a minivan this week and i shou...i just had to drive a minivan this week and i shouted "i can't see the front of this thing!!" while parking. that is too funny.<br />i drove it and i hated it. stupid gas. stupid economy.<br />blech.<br />i feel safe in my big SUV. in the van i feel like i will get smooshed.<br />at least you aren't the mom who just gushes over the minivan....you gave in...just like i probably will have too sooner than later.meg duerksenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14086811740577311427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-45671192983943043422009-06-23T21:52:43.867-07:002009-06-23T21:52:43.867-07:00Oh, I feel your pain!!!
