Chrysler Town & Country. I talked with an old lady a couple of weeks ago that has the same van year and all. Hers just has 75k. I offered to buy it right there. She turned me down and said they never sell their used vehicles to people. They only trade them in.

my BiL works for Vans, so we get a nice discount, but tbh...i've gotten two pair total. i gave my oldest son the hi-tops, and i never wear the lows.

they're just not comfortable. not even for driving the minivan.

I thought the minivan was dead and people bought massive trucks like Yukons now.

I bought mine back in 2011, and still see them everywhere like mini coopers.

I don't see any reason why they'd stop producing them.

yukons and expeditions and armadas are gas guzzlers.

And they’re not really MINIvans anymore either. Don’t know why they’re still called that.

Do they still make Priuses? I swear you never see or hear anything about them anymore, despite them being everywhere about 10 years ago.

This is basically Ford’s entire business model. you see a random ad for one and you think, “huh. They still make that.” It’s known as the Taurus Effect.

I live in the middle of a major US city yet have to drive 35-40 minutes to the nearest emissions testing station. Takes up half my morning.
