In a recent trip to Colorado to visit my in laws (so they can see our newborn daughter) Alina, my 3 month old daughter, was given so many gifts (and my wife is not a light packer) that the back of my Suburban was completely filled (3rd row out). Here are some pics.
This is just one tiny reason that many of us prefer full sized vehicles and why GM built a full sized Hybrid.
I'd like to see someone fit all that in a Prius, or any other hybrid (excluding the GMT-900 2-mode, but even those would be hard pressed with all this stuff; mind you the second row is still positioned for seating because that is where my wife and daughter rode). |
It's your vehicle, and it's your right to buy it and drive it. But if you only have one daughter, I submit that a smaller vehicle and the occasional SUV rental would work fine.
