We are going shopping tomorrow and will probably end up with a grand caravan or a routan eventually. Any suggestions on must have features? We are planning to have more kids in the future to.

    If and when we get a van I'd really like it to have the built in DVD system great for long road trips!
    We rented a Caravan in Florida and I enjoyed it. It was fully loaded except for leather seats. I'm not sure the Caravan base model comes with compares to its higher end but I thought the Caravan was great.
    My sister has a honda odyssey and I think it looks like a space ship.

    I pph my Toyota sienna. Having two RFing carseats, it was a must that the seats are able to slide.

     

    leather is a must, kids are rough on fabric.

    I never thought Id love my van but I do. Ive got a pretty basic one, the only thing I wish I had that I dont are the self opening/closing doors. All of my kids are small enough they cant do the sliding doors on their own. 


    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

    We'll be shopping in the fall, and we'll only be looking at the Sienna.  It is the only minivan that offers all wheel drive.  We live in WI, and our winters suck.  I also want all leather because it is so much easier to clean (2 dogs as well as kiddo).

    The NPR Car Talk guys recommend vans by Honda or Toyota to get 180k+ miles out of them. We'll be getting my aunt's 2007 Town and Country. Happy van shopping!
