    The minivan is the peak vehicle. You can fold down or take out the back seats and fit a 4x8 panel no problem. You can travel, haul, and store till your heart is content in it. It is a car chassis so it is low to the ground but with a tall cabin so you are nice and upright. No one even looks if you sped because you have like an invisibility filter against attention. Not only that, the only knock is that it isn’t cool…which makes no sense, if getting a sports car is “compensating” then having a minivan proudly means you have nothing needing to compensate for. It is the sigma of vehicles. (2013 town and country owner)

      I’m single, but like doing trips around the state. I’ve been slowly convincing myself to get one. Gas mileage is about the same as a common suv.
