That’s not a fox body. You’ve now angered the Mustang crowd. You should go into the witness protection program ASAP.

Came here for the “I came from a long line of people with vaginas” comment if only to add that everyone with a belly button can make this claim. You know...mammals and all that.

It’s a good post.

THIS. My favorite drive right now in the greater family fleet is my father-in-laws 2010 Nissan Quest. We use it as a make shift panel-van for home repairs and yard work and it is better for it’s purpose than any pick-up truck.

Have one modified for off-road duty, I take it places most people won’t take 4x4s.

I reckon you should still give him a TSA style pat down...

agree 100% we rented a few on a long tour with kids recently... they get decent mileage, captains chairs in the second row mean the kids don’t fight on long trips, and with the stow and go action you can load a buttload of stuff in them. A+ for minivans (just make sure you have a toy car too for the weekend thrashing!)

I have an i3 and a 4-year-old. Rear-facing didn’t leave a lot of room to squeeze the kid between the door opening and the seat, but we didn’t do that a long time before he switched to front-facing. Might have been better with a different carseat. Front-facing, though, is a breeze in the i3. No way would it be easier…

I got rid of my Element because of car seats. It’s super hard to access forward facing seats and the only way to do a rear facing seat was too climb into the back.

One day I will fulfill my lifelong dream of turning a Toyota Previa into a race car.

Are you me? I’ve got 2 car seats in the back of my little Scion xD and my exact requirements for my inevitable Sienna are: “Coilovers a must. Small subwoofer box under the driver seat preferred. Black paint on car preferred. All else negotiable.”

I reluctantly bought an Element a couple of years ago, and it’s like a minivan with more focus on cargo than passengers. Gotta love a cavernous, flexible interior.

*Squints at the card... okay it checks out, but watch it.

I agree that it is junk-y... but it is not junk. It just needs someone to give it some love.

The most unpopular part of this is that I am also browsing for wheels, brakes, and possibly coilovers for the new minivan.

I am against your sinful lifestyle. ;)

I like lowered minivans. They don’t have any purpose other than transporting people in comfort.

Minivans are a guilty pleasure of mine. Shit those things are comfortable and boy do they drive nice.

I have an unreasonable amount of hatred for the Corvette. Part of me thinks its a cop out that’s completely unoriginal and the other half had to pull a motor out of one. Now, I’m not saying buying a Porsche, Ferrari or anything else is more original but to me, the Vette (also GTR) are the go-to I have no taste in cars…

Not restoration, conservation. Seriously, some cars you see them rough and you know you have to restore them and bring them back to looking like new, and others -like this- you see rough and you know that the job is just to halt any further decline but keep all the alterations, battle scars, and patina. To restore…
