From what I can see, it’s not ONLY that he parked like an asshole, it looks like he’s blocking an area that people need to get in and out of.

Would you happen to be an Asian with a dark skin complexion? If so, see video #1. LOL!

Rear door window tint isn’t something unique to CUV’s, plenty of sedans have rear windows tinted too. But I can still see through the windows just fine, unless we’re talking about pitch black night time (at which point you should have your headlight on anyways). With properly adjusted mirrors, window tint in the back…

It already has cross-bars for mounting my Yakima Skybox 16 on it. Works incredibly well. If my MDX is a mommy-mobile, what would you call my 997S? Or my old Corvette? Do either of those cars redeem me as a Jalop? Or am I doomed to not have GasMan’s approval because I chose a car that works perfectly for my family?

I didn't say that to you, I said that to the 5.0 guy. If you want to claim I'm making assumptions it would be cool if I could safely assume that you were reading the correct posts to begin with.

Because not everyone is driving taller vehicles, many are still driving sedans and hatchbacks.

If you are talking about blind spots, yeah of course a tiny open top Miata with the safety rating of a Chinese-made motorcycle helmet (assuming your Miata is a NA or NB) compared to a larger and safer vehicle with much more metal obstructing views. But I'm talking about straight ahead, through the windshield, sitting…

You didn’t have to overtly say it, everything in your posts said I have the wrong car and I should buy a minivan.

Good job being completely wrong.

So your solution is to buy an ugly 20 year old sedan with a higher front end? No thanks.

I mean, you could easily sum up every one of your responses to me so far by just saying

Minivan won't fit in my garage, so no, that guy doesn't get it, and neither do you. You are just making assumptions based on no knowledge of my situation whatsoever. My MDX is faster, handles better, has AWD, is more luxurious, looks better, and is more practical for my needs (it actually fits well in my garage) when…

Yeah, 2" wider and 8" longer, which means it’s that much more difficult to get into the rear with some space to work with to get things like groceries out. Actually just did some measurements, with a few inches of clearance in the front, I wouldn’t even be able to walk behind the Odyssey, it would be only about 8"…

You doubt that a MDX can fit five plus luggage? Do you even know what a MDX is? With the third row down there is more than enough room for everyone’s luggage, way more room than a trunk or a standard 5dr hatch offers.

Yeah, and I already said no to the Odyssey because it's too long and too wide to fit comfortably in my attached garage while still being able to park another car next to it and be able to get in and out easily and get stuff in and out easily. I also don't like them, I like the styling of many CUV's, but there isn't a…

I have a roof box, put stuff in there, plus haul 7 people and a dog, all comfortably.

-It’s harder to get in and out of a lower riding sedan. No argument.
-Cars can’t hold more than 5 people, and can’t even really hold 5 comfortably.
-Increased ride height offers easier semi-offroad situations like going to ski/snowboard areas.

The Mercedes Benz E-Class wagon can haul more than 5 people? No, it can’t. Therefore it’s not better than my CUV for my needs. Oh and if you are talking about that little shitty optional rear-facing jump seat...hell no, this isn’t 1973, I’m not facing my kids backwards.

No, it won’t. I like AWD (with snow tires as well), and I like relatively good handling. The Odyssey does not offer either of those. The Odyssey is also lower, uglier, and significantly slower. No thanks.

Okay, they have a lower center of gravity, but still don’t handle nearly as well because they have suspension designed solely for comfort, also that means less ground clearance. Some minivans do have semi-decent 0-60 times, but the MDX is still a little better as far as acceleration goes, and weighs about 400lbs less…
