Our van has major engine issues and it isn't worth fixing. We'd prefer to avoid a car payment, but our budget would be $4000 max. We have 3 kids. 7 year old in Turbo Booster, just moved into second highest height setting. 4.5 year old in Frontier 90. 2 year old in RF Foonf. We did 3 across in a Taurus for awhile (with slightly different seats) and I'm willing to do 3 across again, but we'd like to at least have a cargo area to haul kid stuff and to tether the dog when he needs to come. He has a Ruff Rider so we would just need somewhere to attach the carabiner. If we pay in full, what would our best options be as far as safety, space, and longevity? We loved our Hondas because they made it over 300,000 miles each, but I'm thinking an Odyssey isn't in our price range.
