I was at my book club with some of my favorite friends. The topic (among 45 others) of vehicles came up. Several of them commented on how they could NEVER drive a minivan. Oh my gosh, a minivan, gross. How could any self-respecting woman drive one of those? Ew.
Well, they must have forgotten that I drive a minivan. In fact, I LOVE my minivan. Every time I get in it, I get a twinge of delight. Sounds crazy, but it really is true!
I could literally write an essay on why I love my MV, but that might be a little extreme right? Rather, I will summarize the highlights. I can fit anything in that thing. I can carry the husband, 4 kids, dog, camping gear for a week, 3 coolers and still have plenty of space for all the trash that inevitably accompanies any family trip. I can put seats in, take seats out, lay seats down and move them in any direction I want. You want to pick up a trampoline for the kids? No problem. You want to take the kids and their friends to the movies? You betcha. Car pool? Bring it on. Tight parking space? Sure – this thing can turn on a dime!
Gas mileage is good. Amenities are abundant. Practicality at its best! My question is – what is wrong with being practical? Have I lost all my Mojo as a woman if I drive a MV? Heck no. In fact, I think the opposite. I think being practical is the new black! Watch out, here we come. Beep beep!
