but I think it is actually going to happen come tax time. :love:
I am sharing a car with my sister in law right now because my last car broke down right before christmas. We cant all go anywhere together anymore. I really want an 8 passenger van, since I will potentially have 6 kids to transport often once my brother in law gets a job. Any cheaper options for 8 passenger? I want a Sienna, but not sure if I can get one. I know the venture/montana gets poor safety ratings. Not sure if there are any newer vans I could convert to 8 passenger with a second rear bench, like my old caravan? I would ideally have at least 4 top tethers, not too worried about latch but would be nice if I could get a latchable booster down the line.

I hope you are able to find a van that fits your neads. I am not familiar with which vans you can convert to an 8 passenger van. Hopefully some others on the board can give you some advice.

We have a 2003 dodge caravan. The 3rd row can move to the 2nd, so it could be converted.

2001 dodge caravan 3rd row benches have 3 tethers and 3 LATCH, but can't use all 3 at 1 time.
