AT kid's month... The minivan is dead. Long live the SUV!



With the latest news that Ford is droping the Windstar from the lineup and scratching out any minivan-esque plans for the future, parents (or more like, mothers) are faced with a mild dilema about kid's transportation this days... Yes, I know minivans are awesome for hauling kids but they are hiddeous devices. When you go to soccer practice next weekend, see the parking lot and you will see what I'm talking about. More moms are switching to full blown SUV's and crossover vehicles. (Crossovers are vehicles that give you the commanding view of an SUV with the handling of a sport car, like i.e. Infiniti FX35, Nissan Murano and Mazda CX7 to name a few) but again, I guarantee that your neighbor's son is going to be happy when you carpool him on your brand new "safety yellow" Hummer H3!
