I don't like big vehicles at all. I have two friends with Highlanders and they love them. One friend has had hers for ten years (I think.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-17976165690008362382012-07-16T15:47:59.674+01:002012-07-16T15:47:59.674+01:00Never got to the minivan stage, but kind of needed...Never got to the minivan stage, but kind of needed one for a while. Now we're thinking more about a new stage in life where we're more 'get out and do more' with bikes and hiking etc and considering an SUV. Knowing us it will take 5 years to decide though. I shall watch this space with interest!Michelloui | The American Residenthttp://www.theamericanresident.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-71731863192244327692012-07-16T07:18:22.733+01:002012-07-16T07:18:22.733+01:00You drove a minivan??

Good that you've only told me now that you are going to get rid of it - I might have had to crack a joke otherwise ;-)<br /><br />I completely get the not wanting to bend down bit though. We ordered a new car that comes with the baby. Just realised that this sounds as we had gotten the package of them in a special deal, haha. Anyway, we opted for an SUV. They come as ecologically friendly these days and are a bit more sporty than minivans.Metropolitan Mumhttp://www.metropolitanmum.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-49492089799372403622012-07-16T01:09:54.023+01:002012-07-16T01:09:54.023+01:00I'm always a bit rude about minivans, but it&#...I'm always a bit rude about minivans, but it's definitely because I've got 2 kids and can still just about fit them in an ordinary sedan - if I had 3 I'd probably be getting a minivan like a shot. Everyone round here has one, and the boys are forever asking me why we have such a small car......nappy valley girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10788949037047084412noreply@blogger.com
