I won't own a vehicle to not use it regularly - my Viggen convertible excepted of course. Ok, so I won't own two vehicles that don't see regular use.
The frustrating component is that any vehicle large enough for this task, and I have considered used mini-vans such as the Odyssey, seem to have horrible fuel efficiency. And most of the driving will be with only one or two people on board.
Maybe the best solution is to keep what we have, which can carry 4-5 people, and rent a larger vehicle for the rare occasions when more space is needed. Although this is inconvenient as well. We live in Michigan and all the kids live in Pittsburgh so these high occupancy occasions will have advance notice.
