    Yes, but is there a battery option, for the lazy or spastic?

    The cameras may be a problem with what I plan to do with this van.

    "Oh, and by the way we've blurred out kids faces because in Michigan, as in almost every state, it's illegal to show pictures of a minor without consent of the parents."


    Thanks god you explained that. For a minute I thought all children in Michigan were faceless drones.

    I like the use of Le Mans style position lights on the fenders so spectators can see what place you are in the standings of getting Johnny and Suzie to soccer practice.

    Chiwei Lee. "They waited until they were ready for children and see parenthood as adding to their aesthetic portfolio, instead of smashing it."


    If I had an aesthetic portfolio, it's the first thing I'd smash.

    @assaab E666 wants Canadian C(l)ub(e): Anyone who even thinks that they have an "aesthetic portfolio" in the first place is a world-class douchebag.


    Of course, those people are why cul-de-sacs, minivans, "civilized" SUVs (as opposed to the old ORVs), and homeowners' associations exist, too.


    Obviously, I can't have kids or live in a "nice" neighborhood, or I'll have to give up on everything I actually enjoy (except maybe drinking-- that would likely increase).

    Seems like a lot of parents these days are worried about being "the cool mom/dad." They need a Ford Transit Old School edition. In the back seat the entertainment system includes windows to look outside and a net behind the seat to hold a book. If you complain, there is a space between the front seats for the parents to reach back and "adjust attitudes." There is a steering wheel with which to "turn this car around." There is also one stereo that only plays the music of the person driving.


    I think it'll be a best seller.

    I have a niece and nephew who have NO concept of spending more than 5 minutes in a moving vehicle without a Nintendo DS and/or a DVD playing.

    @wrx-fuckingTyrannosaurusWrx: I remember family vacation to Florida every year when I was a kid. We loaded up the old Windstar and geared up for the 20 hour drive from Baltimore to Cocoa Beach FL with myself, my younger brother and older sister, in addition to the even more dysfunctional parents up front.


    I can't tell you how many I got squirted with a water bottle by my mother in the front seat in her attempts to get me off my younger brother, who had woken me from my dreams of the Plymouth Prowler (You know its a kid's car).


    Every year we'd stop at South of the Border for the most useless shit of all time. Half-assed knock off Transformers that were never really as much fun as the real thing. It was almost awesome. Just like the Prowler.

    The coolest mom wouldn't drive something with a 4-spd auto - I'd go with some form of sports wagon (RS6?).


    Unless my mom is reading this, in which case the coolest mom drives a Hyundai. Clearly.
