#Minivan #Decline #Economy

Minivans are ugly as crap. They look like thought bubbles. 🥴😭🤦🏾♀️
after a lifetime of owning different types of cars I have come to the conclusion that minivans are the best vehicle to have.
No lie, there is to mini vans….I would not mind owning the latest model Sienna That I've seen in a nice goldish Bronze with factory rims that match the body color, Or the Kia Carville which technically kinda looks like an S.U.V mixed with a mini van!
та мн похуй, я водила – ваз 2104
No Decline 😂
Can't even get your hands on a New Toyota Sienna without waiting for months ! !
This News Piece is an Industry Sponsored Joke 🤡
Minivans never offer AWD. I wonder if they'd do a little better by offering that feature.
What’s driving the decline of minivan?
Price
I can drive my 2010 Toyota Sienna 80 mph past a speed trap and not get ticketed. Let’s see an oversized SUV accomplish that feat!! Lol
We just got a 2008 Honda odyssey EX two weeks ago for a very fair price. My mom had one we my brother and I were kids for many years. Now my wife needed one for her work at home daycare and with this kids taking our son to preschool during the day needed 4-5 car seats. And minivan does great at it. Just so practical and useful and spacious inside. It rides well super smooth. It is kinda of boring yeah but just so well for a 16 year old vehicle with 158k on it.
Geeky rep is why
I was a kid when we first got our Ford Areostar. What a tank of a minivan, but so many memories! The Windstars my parents got to replace it were great too! Learned to drive in a 98 Windstar.
Is was declining in 2001 where Bigger SUV was the ages but minivans are coming back after Honda And Toyota made luxury fratures and layouts on their minivan like no other car maker.
I just bought a Chrysler Pacifica.
People convert them to campervan
minivans way to go baby!
I'm happy i decided to get a minivan. Because, surprise. I got twins on the way to increase my children count to 3. So… yeah
They stopped making the Town and Country 10 years ago
We bought a 2024 Honda odyssey for the 2 kids. Best purchase ever
We had a 2003 Chrysler Town & Country, loaded with the goodies. We raised two kids in it. We had it for eight years. It had over 140,000 miles on it when we traded it off. I miss it.
True American right there! Minivans on top💯
Minivans are overrated. Get wagons!
Just like station wagons the fad has ended How ever the nostalgia for a station wagon is increasing! How ever mini vans were under diffrent CAFE ratings
No one wants to be laughed at and look like a dork!
Too expensive. Families now prefer smaller and cheaper cars. Families don't mind a cramped and cheaper to maintain vehicle.
Higher gas prices also contribute to this new preference.
I guess people prefer a Bus like Mercedes-Benz O405
Uhh, many young people are deciding not to have children cause of the economy. Could that be it? lol 😂
