Northern Virginia Roll Call

so much truth in this one post.

 

Yeah, we had a Dodge minivan we back when in my younger years, but it was nothing compared to what we had before it:



This thing was a tank.

 

did it have the backwards facing seats in the rear????

 

Never really thought to go beyond saying "no" to people by limiting the vehicle itself of additional seats. I personally don't mind company depending on the situation and if it doesn't put me out too much.

Sure did, fold down too. When it was flat we could fit luggage, plus a small mattress to sleep on in that thing, and that was a 6 person road trip.

 

I never had minivans growing up. My parents had/have Subarus. Also my uncle had the Camry wagon with rear facing seats. That was awesome. My dad would wire in a tv with a built in VCR and we were set.

 

I don't mind it. Especially if I give friends a ride, and they break my shit. Then i dont want to continue that, if they aren't fixing it.

Now, if you want a ride, you have to try to fit in my back seat (which I might delete anyways)

I get that if you got things broken before from destructive passengers...but what the hell did they break? I mean unless you are hauling some crackhead on the way to rehab, I cant see them getting that ridiculous next to you right? I have to admit though, finding hidden trash and stuff afterwards can get a little annoying.

 

that's awesome! just avoid eye contact w/ the car behind you. haha

 

Were those the ones with the two windshield wipers on the rear window? I always thought those were awesome.

 

Morning everyone

 

That's Harry and the Henderson's epic!

 

Legit call bro!

 

My parents always had those crappy old dodge caravans unti lthey updated to a Nissan quest or some crap. I finally converted them over to the subaru AWD thank god and my dad finally got a tacoma and now he wants a tundra lol! I hate minivans and will never own one. Only SUV or Subies for us. But the features and room on the new ones are pretty dope.

 

My parent's had an early 90's Dodge Grand Caravan. Thing was such a piece, but it took us on many a road trip. Before twin sliding doors or headrests in the rear. I think the transmission gave out on it.

They upgraded to a 2000 Honda Odyssey. I learned how to drive in that thing. Got it up to 115mph once. Suffered the same fate as the dodge- Trans gave out

 

This isn't a shot of their actual car, but my parents rocked a maroon Volvo wagon back in the 80s.

 

Yea, I didn't have any credit (thus no credit score) when I bought the truck, so I had a really high interest rate.

Monthly payment dropped from $560 to $270 with the Subaru.

 

I had a 2011 Outback before getting my 2014 Tacoma. Outback was great but I just needed ... ok wanted the bed of the Tacoma.

 

youre just in time.... we're all talking about how much we love minivans and huge old station wagons. haha

I had a a 2016 Jeep wrangler, and a 2017 WRX before I had my Tacoma.... I knew I wanted the utility of a truck bed, reliable, legendary 4wd, and yet small enough to be able to take trails..... the Tacoma was a perfect fit.
