No, it's all the kids going. One isn't even ours. LOL

Seriously, it's been a rough year for us. I can't leave them at home the first chance we get to go somewhere for the weekend. They'd better remember this later in life.

Lol just make sure they remember it for the right reasons...

I still remember the sounds comming from my folks room on a trip to NYC when I was 12.... Horriable ,horriable sounds !!

get an Acura MDX....you can thank me later...and forever!

I am currently driving an MDX, have put almost 100k on it.

It is killing me to trade it in/sell it, but after renting a crap van, the logistics and arrangement of seats+ storage is better for the family with small kids.

Getting in and out of my MDX for the little ones is tough, even with the sideboard.

Believe me, I don't want to get rid of it.

The Odyssey is basically the same ride minus the AWD, same platform, but I am not giving up deep snow escapability.

I do not share Husker's fragile ego. I can drive anything and still be the sexiest guy at the supermarket.

I get to drive the fiancees Town And Country all the time. It has a lot of gadgets in it which is cool. I also get to drive her Jeep, which is older but comfortable - as soon as the temperature gets halfway decent I am going to get my Miata out and reclaim the road.

It's a lease and it gets turned in this May, I will probably just drive the Jeep for a while and it's a tad depressing...I love small cars....

I've been hearing that Toyota is struggling right now.

And not just because of that accelerator stuff.

Dunno.

I'm contemplating getting a Sienna, yeah, I'm that guy with the two carseats and minivan (maybe).

Let me know what you think of it.

My brother had 2 Siennas - both had their engines blow - if you google really well, you'll find out that there were some major problems a while back that were kept very hush, hush. If you happened to be lucky enough to find out there were problems, Toyota made it right - if you didn't they blamed you. First one that my brother had it happen - they blamed him and he believed them so he bought another one. I later found out some stuff - from those Car Talk guys. Second one, he did all of his scheduled maintenance and when they accused his not not changing his oil properly and using the wrong oil - he said, check your records boys. They fixed it for free.

I haven't heard of any other problems because my brother quit buying Siennas.

I'm a Honda Odyssey fan myself. Got a 2000 one with 135,000 miles on it and love it. Had a major problem with it at 105,000 miles - transmission had to be replaced. Honda had extended the warranty on the transmission to something like 6 years, 100,000 miles - I was beyond that by not much in miles, but a couple of years. They replaced it anyway for me.

Will get another one when mine falls apart.

Tough time for Toyota. I heard a radio add on an LA based station today. Longo Toyota, the biggest damned Toyota store you've ever seen is open as of now 24/7 to do your recall, no appointment necessary. Must suck to work in Toyota service right now big time.

Toyota will get through this though, they make a great product.

I only drove from the dealership, around town, and home. But it drives and rides great. The one we were loaned doesn't have all the bells and whistles but it is power everything, and I can't figure out to get the interior lights to come on when you open the door. I'm also apparently spoiled, cause I freaked out over having to turn my headlights on and off. My car is loaded, and I'm kinda missing the little things.

      5 yards a carry is great IMO opinion because we are talking an average of 2nd and 5, which means the defense can't sit solely on the pass or run. I understand 5 is an average and not all carries are going to be that, but he definitely had better runs than Chuba. When we have Chuba running the ball for 1 or 2 yards and getting stuck in 2nd and 8 or 3rd and 6, we have to pass - which as we saw was the nail in the coffin for us with Dalton back there. The only 2 drives in the game where we had a legit chance of scoring (before garbage time) was the drive we scored a FG on and the drive Andy took the inexcusable sack on to cost us points. No coincidence that the RB on the field those drives was Rico (who pretty much picked up 5+ yards every carry outside of that goofy direct snap play). It really needs to be a 2-to-1 ratio of snaps in favor of Rico going forward (unless Chuba gets better). I don't care if we are paying Chuba more. Other teams have had no problem benching the guy being paid more if the other player is doing better - just look at the Falcons and them starting Penix over Cousins like 6 games into his rookie season.

      Depends on perspective. I do think the talent is great. Whether T-Mac reaches his potential is another story, especially within these current circumstances. Some of the metrics are really good already (like average yards per catch). Even PFF already had him as the 20th or so best WR in the league.
