    I love having my bed (even though it's a SB) for camping and road trips but if my wife and I were to have a 3rd kid, I would definitely consider trading in for a Sequoia or a 4runner. Not sure I could do a Sienna

    So. Many. Stickers.
    Never understood that mentality. You got sliding doors so you're like a helicopter. They're not going to hit park cars, you've got more interior cargo volume, you get 30 plus miles per gallon, you got plenty of power, you have all-wheel drive options now... Minivans just make sense. When it comes to hauling people around. Why they're called people carriers over in the UK.

    Your wife gets the Sienna. That's the key.

    I think a Sienna would be too big for her, right now she wants a Rav4 because she is finding out how hard it is on your back loading a 35lb kid into a car seat in her Honda Accord.

    Ravs are excellent..... back doors are tiny. Still gonna be rough.
    A Sienna though .... so much room for activities

    Check my build thread...too much to list.
    Wife still isn't on board with a minivan. We're waiting to see how much trunk space the Grand Highlander has before deciding. Honestly could care less between the two just need something to comfortably transport 4 kids around town and a 3rd row 5th gen Runner is not it. My oldest is always dying back there without a/c vents.

    Ended up grabbing the used KO2s for $200. They’re probably half worn (a little more than the guy alluded) but I bet I can get a year or 2 out of them. They cleaned up nice, going white letters out when I mount emIMG_0573.jpg

    I need to get some new tires... I got lots of tread left on the Falkens but after like 60-70k miles on them, showing signs of dry rot. and I got one that's cupped. Not sure how it happened, just been 5 tire rotating it to try to get it to wear back even with no improvement. Might just be these wear too slowly to wear back even in any reasonable time.
