Hey Clodfobble,
to address one point you made: I don't equate SUVs and minivans. Minivans are actually practical in many situations.
I would never buy an SUV. I don't need one. When I look at others who have them, I can't imagine more than 2-3% actually needing them. But people buy them anyway. Go figure.
In the time since my wife and I bought a Geo Prizm 8 years ago, we have had two kids. The Prizm works well for 95% or more of the driving we do as a family. But when people come visit, or when we go on long road trips, I wish we had a minivan. The Prizm is just too small at those times. We always find a way to make it work. So the lack of a minivan is more of an inconvenience than anything else.
If I were rich, I would have a car, a minivan, and a pick-up truck. I would drive the one that I need at each time. But I'm not rich.
