oops poll should say 2000 venture not 2002*

Ok we are van shopping!
we will soon have a newborn in a snug ride, a 3 year old FFing in a radian xt, and a 2 year old RFing in a TF and a rather large valco trimode stroller to put in the back
here are a few i found id like to go look at ...
if you could pick one of them which would you go for?


1998 Pontiac

2000 Chevy Venture Extended Sport

2004 Chevy Venture Extended

2002 Olds Silhouette GL


i really dont know much about minivans but i do know that i need one with a bigger back end for our stroller OR one that has a seat or part of a bench that i can fold down easily to make room for the stroller preferably not having to fold down a whole bench

any advice welcome!

Well I have a 2005 Pontiac Montana (same as a Venture or a Transport) and if I had to do it all over again I would not have bought it. I've read a few things on here about the crash tests and they did not do well, I'm pretty sure they have a "poor" rating.
I am looking into trading in and getting another van in the fall.

Before my Montana I had an Olds Silhouette and I LOVED that van, it drove wonderfully and I never had a problem installing a car seat. Not sure how it did with safety ratings but maybe someone else knows. I do know that I loved driving it.
