What's it like driving it after being in a Mini? Do you feel like a U-boat commander? Good chioce, if I went with a Mini Van again I would go the same way. If I do go to a Mini Van again, please shoot me. I love my kids but do NOT want more. My Saab isn't a small vehicle either. We also have the La...

I know folks who have 18s on their 07/08s. I have aftermarket 17s on mine with H&R springs and the ride is awesome.

Honda is the way to go, however they are not cheap. This is a 2007 with 12K miles on it. I found it on Autotrader from a private seller. I got it for a price I couldn't pass up. That is why I currently have a used car lot in front of my house :). In college, I had a Honda CRX. I bought it with 60K m...

If I have kids and need a Mini van I still wouldn't buy a mini van. LOL
