We just had a conversation about this car business
yesterday. We went with a Honda Odyssey. It turns out
we planned for the worst case scenario: the few times
we'd have the twins, helper, and at least one of the
moms with us. Suffice to say that in two years we had
that situation exactly 5 days. We could have bought
something smaller and just rented when needed.On the
other hand I find having room for a third person beside
the 2 (Diono) car seats important to me, and the
Odyssey does provide that, and a ton of space for
schlepping all the gear when we travel around. I had
not considered the car pooling issue, and I'm glad
someone brought it up in case it is a concern for
you.I'd look at any car with an eye for Usual Car Stuff
(handling, ergonomics, durability, safety, maintenance
and fuel costs, resell value and any green concerns you
have) and then take the car seats and the stroller with
you for a test fit. If you travel often, it may pay off
to check if stroller, 2 travel cribs (if you use them)
and a large suitcase fit in the trunk.Alessandra
