Minivans are some of the most practical vehicles for families with kids. It's suffering from the same antipathy that was reserved for wagons two decades ago . . . basicly the same soccer-mom self-hate: anything associated with the soccer mom is automatically a no-no for image-conscience women raised on cosmetic ads and Barbie Dolls, as well as for insecure men who somehow think the type of vehicle they drive affects their machismo image. The built-in baby seats in the second row alone are god-send convenience and space saver when not in use. Little niche-specific advantages like that are not likely to be discovered until the target audience deign to sit in one. I discovered that only when a friend parked her minivan in our driveway, and my kid wanted to explore the "tree house" on wheels.
