  • I don't know if you already own a VW, but when we bought ours we were told that you should never buy a VW the first year that a new model comes out.  Apparently they are known for having lots of bugs the first year that they fix in the next model year.

    I dont have one but my dh and I drove an hour to go look at one.  I was not impressed.  It is a nice van and has a lot of good things but its just not roomy enough for me.  (I have 3 in carseats and need room to get into the 3rd row)  I didnt really look at much other than the room factor because that is the main reason for getting a new van. 

    I have thought about going to look at one again and taking the carseats and sitting them in to see the actual room I would have.  I really wanted to like that van.  I always wanted a VW and wished they would make a new van.  Now they do but Im not sure its big enough. 

    Im leaning more towards the Quest, Odyssey, and Town N Country.  I wish I could combined those 3 into one van.  Each have things I like and dislike about them. 

    Have you looked at any of them yet? 

  • Thanks. I haven't gone to look yet, but that's a good point about a first-year model. We currently have a Mazda Tribute (small SUV), and there's just not enough room. I don't know if we should get a wagon, a bigger SUV, or a van. I guess I'll drive them to see what I think.
  • I have been oogling them online. ?We have a Toyota Sienna that I really am happy with but I've always wanted a VW!

  • No but I am considering reversing my tubal ligation in an attempt to have another baby just to get one.
