My First Family Vehicle

I went with a Toyota Avalon for my soon to be family. Plenty of space, nice power and reliability, and safe.

Choosing the appropriate transportation for your family is not a sigh of getting old but one of maturity.

You can all laugh now.

After getting a GL320 (7 seats SUV) I stopped driving VR4. It is such a smooth sailing, especially on the roads that nobody cares to fix (seems like most of them). VR4 is dd no more

I'll be stuck with the Sonoma, which is worse than my base for DD. Ask my wife, I'm sure she'll tell you it rides nice though :/

my wife has an 03 crew cab sonoma. it's a nice truck. it IS a gm, and has the standard complaints associated with that...but overall, it's super nice. it had 5% tint when we got it, and it was awesome.
