must buy car now

any suggestions?
It has been nice here in the Woodlands because we have only had to have one car. Neil's work is so close I can just drop him off and go about my day with minimal inconvenience. But in Dallas we will not be living in such a close proximity to his office and once I have this third baby we will no longer fit in my trusty corolla. My parents gave me the corolla while I was in college and it has always run beautifully. Well the battery died a few weeks ago and I was stranded but that was the first time I had ever had a problem in seven years! and now that it has a new battery it is back in business. My gut goes towards the toyota sienna because that is what my mom has and I am used to driving it. I would want one where the seats collapse into the ground. I was recently in an odyssey (sp?) though and they are nice and roomy. Do any of you seven readers I invited to my blog have any advice?

sorry, as a peterson- i have to say the sienna. Brian and I are looking into getting one soon. The 2011 sienna is awesome! they are convenient, cheap, better gas mileage than a suburban, what can i say- i am a great spokeswoman for them. i think its a little more than an odyssey but you just cant go wrong with a toyota. love them. and hey, if you're willing to drive it back from idaho i'm sure grandpa would give you a good deal ;)

I've got nothin' Sorry girl. I promise I am a good reader though, even though I don't have much insight. :)

I've heard a lot of good things about the Sienna. I was looking into the Honda Pilot for a bit... but I like the SUV look and it fits 7. I know a lot of mom's that love their Sienna's... and after borrowing one to truck around kids I know it's nice to drive. :)
