My wife doesn’t like minivans because it is so windy around here, and minivans tend to blow around. I got her a 1994 Chevy Caprice wagon with the “way back.” Between rear facing car seats, and not being allowed to put kids in the front because of the air bags that can’t be switched off, the would be nine-seater can deal with as few as five.

Speaking for myself, I miss the broad bench seats of yesteryear. They were MUCH more comfortable than the buckets and split benches of today.

And these !#@$#@$#$ moron safety-eco NAZIs wonder why SUVs (and minivans, FTM) are so popular.

I wonder how people “carpool” with others’ kids, when you have to have a damn booster seat (never mind the other monstrous things) for each. What a pain in the !@$@!
