Advice on Minivans

We're still in a sedan, but my sister has an suv and complains just about every time I get in her car that there aren't ac vents in the back to help cool down the car for the kids...especially being in Florida. I think a lot of the newer suvs/vans have the vents in the back, but it might be something to double check.

I love, love, love my Toyota Sienna. The seats fold down really super easy. I have the doors and liftgate that open with a push of a button and the DVD player. Love it!!

I have a Kia Sedona (2003) and I recommend the Kia. It handles well. Newer models have the automatic doors feature (press a button to close/open the side or rear hatch doors). I test drove a 2007 a few years ago and was impressed with the upgrades/improvements. More horsepower and better MPG (which isn't bad on mine) along with better storage for groceries in the back. Lots of good standard features. I do like my mini-van and would get another Kia if I needed to replace mine now.

I have had a Ford Windstar and was not inpressed, however, I have LOVED my Nissan Quest. I have a 2006 when the speedometer is in the center. They have since put it back in front of the steering wheel. But the feature that is fabulous is the rear view video camera. Its amazing how accustomed one grows to it. It also has the back-up sensors. There's lots of room too. and all the seats fold down if you need to put something fairly big inside.
Good luck on making your decision!
