Mini van. Great price, ride, and amazing for travel. No door dings.

Not a keeper. She’s vain and is putting her own vanity ahead of your family’s comfort, safety, and financial well being.
Tell her you’re getting a mini van and if she doesn’t like it she can leave…

Have an expedition max. It's nice.
We got it because my car died and we have 3, soon the be 4 kids.
I like it, no problems yet. We've had it for almost a year. 2024

Pretty spot on with the Sequoia. I’ve been considering one for myself, but removing the third row all together and putting in a flat floor.
Really hoping Toyota will listen to the customer and make some chnages in the next couple of years. They’re also expensive for the issues you pointed out.

You should have bought the Grand Cherokee and not Wagoneer

Recently bought a Lexus GX460 and it’s hands down the best SUV i have ever seen, inside and out.
Spend the $, its worth it.

3 kids already plus adding another?? You're gonna need a cargo van .. fricking Mini Van won't do it...
Avoid the Sequoia That won't have nearly enough room either
Best bet would be to get a Yukon XL/ Suburban or and Expedition Max

Have Mrs. kicker22 test drive a minivan. Town & Country/Pacifica, Sienna, Odyssey. They are all incredible rides. Better space usage, easier to get in and out of, better on fuel, easier to drive IMO.
Mrs. BTB (no pics) was skeptical at first but we test drove one and she liked it a lot. We're waiting til the funds and timing are right to buy one.

There’s a reason why there’s too much inventory of these. Apparently Jeep can’t sell them.
Got the wife an Overland Grand Cherokee several years ago. Piece of shite has lived in the shop. Jeep won't get another dime from me.

rented a minivan while my wife’s vehicle was in the shop, drove it a couple weeks. It’s only the two of us plus dogs and it was awesome. Easily the most practical and comfortable large vehicle I’ve driven
Van owner checking in. We camp a lot, and I leveled/lifted ours and installed a size up AT tires (SUV tires, nothing crazy). I no longer scrape curbs, and it seems to drive better too. For a road trip I installed rear coil spring air bags, and it doesn’t sag at all under load. It’s really the best of both worlds with the practicality of a van, and the feel/performance (for what most people will use it for) of an SUV.

It’s Yukon/suburban/tahoe or minivan
I drive a Tahoe and love it. Paid off and no issues through 100k miles
My sister has three kids and recently got a minivan and that thing is awesome. My wife will probably get one if we have more kids.

I’ve had one as a rental twice and really like the way they drove
Don’t need one myself but would be on my list if I needed something that big

It will always be wild to me that people will acknowledge they have no intention of utilizing the only advantages an SUV offers over a minivan (namely off-road ability and towing) but still insist on paying 2x minivan prices for one solely for the sake of appearances.

Yukon and Tahoe are not going to cut it with 3 kids. You'll have one in the third row which means you will have 0 storage in the back. It's shocking how little you have with the third row up.
Go with the suburban, Yukon XL, expedition max if you don't want a minivan.
We have a 22 z71 suburban with the 5.3, it's been great for us so far.

My brother bought an AWD Sienna for his wife a couple of years ago. They love it. He brings the whole family to the camp with him while pulling his fourwheeler.

Not no, but hell no. I currently lease the regular wagoneer. Went with the lease bc (1) I was leery of owning a chrysler product and (2) I only needed the size for about 3 years.
It's not a bad vehicle, when it's not in the shop. But in the first 18 months +/- it has been in the shop 3 times (once for a month and a half) and now needs to go back in as the power steering intermittently decides it doesn't need to work. All repair visits were electrical/computer issues, but each one sidelined the vehicle.
Wife and I are literally counting down the months until the lease is up.

Tell your wife to stop being an idiot. Minivans are awesome especially with young children.
