I was ok selling my BMW for my wife’s car, but we held out on the minivan for as long as we could. After our incident with the 4Runner, my mom insisted on getting us a new car. I would’ve driven the 4Runner for a couple more years before eventually giving in and buying a van.
We’ve talked to other parents and everyone feels the same. It’s something you fight and fight, but once you give in, you realize it’s great and you don’t know how you did without it.
This is our 2015 Toyota Sienna XLE and it’s been awesome. Really.
We had to take it on 4-5 trips to northern California already. Some of the trips were pretty rough but the van made it as comfortable as it could be.
And on a side note, I had a great sales experience with Tustin Toyota. I don’t mind the car buying process, but they made everything as easy and didn’t try to add anything extra. They have this old Land Cruiser there so I sent a picture of this to my wife to tell her I bought it instead.
