Searching for the Minivan of Our Dreams #045

Our 2010 minivan went caput last week. Up in a billow of smoke. Don't worry, there was no fire and no-one was hurt. But, it does mean we have to kick our car search into high gear.

So, we spend some time lamenting the loss of our minivan, laughing about the many things we have hit with that car (mostly curbs and mailboxes), and we have a few thoughts on the pros and cons of several of the most popular used minivans on the market today. They all have something for someone. After a long day of test drives we have narrowed down our search, however, to just one...
