Minivans are wonderful, purpose-built vehicles that are as legitimate as any race car. They are more comfortable, economical and practical than any SUV. In a truly relational society minivans would be kings and SUVs would be a minor market segment.

But do buy a minivan that will last a while. I second the vote for a Toyota or Honda. We had a Honda for many years and miss it fondly but we really coveted the nicer interior and cushier ride of a Toyota. Either one is almost perfect. Please do not buy a Chrysler or VW minivan. We loved our Chrysler for the first 3 years and 36,000 miles, but it fell apart day by day after that. Buy something nice that will last a while. You won't want to give it up after you've gotten used to it.
MRM - Great advice. This has been my life-long sermon about any Chrysler product and it has served me well......(I used to have to drive their junk products at work back in the 70's/80's).......
