Okay, so far I've been fine with my 10 & 12yos and their stinky gear in my van. My van is big and they don't smell too bad... yet... But I need a new vehicle at some point. It seems like everyone at hockey drives either a Sienna or a crossover or SUV of some sort. But I don't want something quite that big.
I was looking at the Rondo & Mazda5 for their bonus row of seats (yeah, I know you can't have cargo & people at the same time, that's fine, I have my 15p too ). Then I was looking at the Elantra Touring for the small size & fuel economy.
But do I really want to share my "passenger air" with a hockey bag? For 4+ hours driving home from a tournament?
But a sedan that has enough trunk space for a hockey bag or two plus a playpen isn't going to be small or fuel efficient. I mean, if I'm going to drive an Impala, I might as well just get a Sienna. It's got about the same footprint.
Opinions from other stinky-sports-families?
