I won't go that far, but I will say that when I had my '89 Toyota Van AWD, an original minivan, the girls really loved it! I, for my part, loved them all...including the van. My brother rolled it, ending that chapter of my car life.
It was a great van for cyling, and I took two buddies and 3 MTBs all inside the van down to Kentucky to do some trail riding, and the Van got us across some sweet doubletrack deep in the forests. Good times, those.

There's MILLIONS of fun things you can do in them! Twister...cart around half a dozen bikes...put another small car inside of them, embarrass daughter on the way to school, you name it.
I don't even really NEED one - I've only got one kid, and our sedan is fine...I just want one lol.

I still have to go with my Ford F-150. Love this vehicle. It's big and roomy, handles great, and still gets 26 mpg on the highway. I can also fit a boat load of bikes in the back.
As for minivans, I hate the idea of having to turn in your man card before dealer hands you the keys...

Possibly my favorite feature is how you can press a button and the side doors slide open.

Back in the day when mooning was a thing, vans with sliding doors were the ultimate guerrilla mooning vehicle. (someone told me that anyway.........)

Any compact or mid-size SUV that either comes standard with a Class III hitch or can be fitted with one.

Volkswagen California 🚘
How about the new VW California? To bad, the "California" won't be sold in California...or the U.S. for that matter.
