Then you turn around and hop in the stang and go for single digit mpg's

I have two kids..7 and 4..and there is plenty of room. 3 kids, and you need a van. 2 or under..don't sell. Trust me.

My neighbor sold his original Boss back in the day when they had their first kid. You should have looked at his face when he saw the car seats in my mustang. It was sad. He looked broken.

Last year, we drove from STL to Tennesee in my car..two kids, the woman, and me.

Make it work..or be that sad old guy with regret.

Oh...and buying an SUV or minivan for ONE kid is totally rediculous.

Congratulations! I agree with the others. Mini Van is a big no. Decent SUV or truck I can whole-heartedly agree on. Im only 18 though so I have time :P.
