2022 Kia Carnival: Why We’ll Probably Buy This Minivan, But Not the Top Trim Level

October 6, 2021 by Erica Mueller Leave a Comment

As the mom of three, I can technically do without a third row. In fact, we recently purchased a pickup truck as our daily driver/family car. But the time is quickly approaching when the grandparents who live with us will also need to ride with us, and there’s nothing like a minivan for easy in-and-out…

2020 Toyota Sienna: 8 Reasons Why the Minivan is Still the King of Family Vehicles

October 19, 2020 by Erica Mueller Leave a Comment

Coming from a die-hard truck and SUV family, a minivan has always been the furthest thing from my wishlist when it comes to a family car. My mom friends rave about their minivans, so a few years ago I decided we’d rent one for the annual family vacation. Boy are minivans nice for road trips!…

The Great Debate: Minivan or SUV?

October 17, 2016 by Scotty Reiss Leave a Comment

Deciding isn’t as easy as you might think. Dear AGirlsGuidetoCars, My wife and I have an 8 month old and are in the market for a family car.  We have one daughter and don’t plan on another, but do occasionally travel with our two dogs (but that is rare).  We are evaluating the Toyota Highlander…

2016 Kia Sedona: Perfect For Extended Family Travel

April 5, 2016 by Karen Heffren Leave a Comment

2016 Kia Sedona

Testing the 2016 Kia Sedona on a multi-generational vacation. Last month my husband, sons and I took a multigenerational vacation to Orlando with my dad, brother and sister-in-law. We’ve always relied on Disney’s Magical Express service for airport transportation when visiting Walt Disney World, but this time we planned a day outside of Disney at…

2015 Toyota Sienna: Top Pick By My Teens

June 9, 2015 by Lorraine Robertson Leave a Comment

2015 Toyota Sienna and Teens

  What do you like about the 2015 Toyota Sienna? “EVERYTHING.” That pretty much sums my review up in one word. I received that same response when I asked each of my family members including my 14 year-old son, Miles. For anyone who has a teen, or was a teen, you understand how difficult they are to…

Watch This Mom Drift Her Minivan, Like a Boss

February 23, 2015 by Nicole Wakelin Leave a Comment

What is Momkhana? Minivans are the turf of moms. Sure, you see dads behind the wheel and the occasional reluctant teenager, but they are largely a mom thing used to ferry children and their stuff from point A to point B. They’re both loved and hated depending on your point of view, but in no…

Honda Odyssey Review: Comfort, Tech and—Yes!—A Vacuum

2015 Honda Odyssey

Smooth Sailing from New York to Florida in the 2015 Honda Odyssey. I can remember driving to Florida from our home in Connecticut when I was a kid. Crammed into the backseat of the family clunker, my brother and I fought over space and pretty much everything else during our 24 hours of vehicular confinement….

Dodge’s 100th Birthday: Driving A Vintage Fleet

August 13, 2014 by Scotty Reiss Leave a Comment

Dodge's 100th Anniversary

Getting Behind the Wheel Of Cars Built Before I Was Born (some of them, anyway). I was recently invited to join Chrysler and Dodge executives, enthusiasts and journalists to drive a fleet of vintage Dodges at the former Dodge Estate outside Detroit. It was an exciting day, even for non-car enthusiasts: it was like getting up…

August 29, 2012 by Scotty Reiss Leave a Comment

Minivans: Cool? Automakers would love to think that–and they try to sell that idea – but so far, car buyers aren’t convinced. So, with a focus on comfort, amenities, conveniences and performance, mini vans have turned a new corner: now, it’s all about getting your geek on.
