You can buy two minivans for the price of one suburban these days, and it still won't be as efficient at moving children around.



Not just that, but you try getting a five year old to open his own door to get into the car in a Suburban. If he can get it open, good luck to the car doors of any vehicle parked next to you.

Chrysler T&C here. 15 y/o nephew asked me last year what vehicle i thought I'd get once I was done with my minivan (it was only a year old at that point). I told him, probably another minivan, LOL.

Yes, but with the Suburban, you keep your man card and can stuff the crotch fruits in the 2nd, 3rd and rear spaces.

Worrying about your mancard is pretty much the first way to lose it IMO.

Nothing screams "my wife carries my balls in her purse" like a station wagon or Minivan.

My wife hates minivans, and I find them to be extremely practical. So much for that theory of yours.

I'm glad you told yourself enough you now believe they are an acceptable option.

German wagons are amazing vehicles, but no one buys those so I guess you're talking about Subarus.

As opposed to what? Something equally as practical, such as an SUV or crossover, that doesn't look completely ridiculous.

You know what else is practical? A satchel. There's a reason you shouldn't carry one around. Same reason you shouldn't be driving a minivan.

Fast station wagons are akin to a 350lb chick that gives great head.

It looks like you can get an 09 Sienna for that 15k budget. Given your price point and interests that might be your best bet.

Equally shitty looking crossovers or SUVs don't have stowable seats like minivans have, so they lose most of the function but keep the I've given up on life look.

We're a sedan family, if 10,000 things don't fit in the car we take the truck.

I dive an Expedition right now actually, but thanks for further proving that you care so much about what people think about what you drive.

I don't expect people have good taste in vehicles, but I'd take a E class, 5 series, or A6 wagon over an SUV all day long.

These have the "i've given up on life" look?







Not that those are my favorite looking vehicles, but I'd take one of those over a minivan
