After 27 years and 3 teens we finally had a fender-bender in the family. My van is at the body shop getting a manicure and I'm driving around town in a Nissan Pathfinder. Before the rental I couldn't have pointed out a Nissan Pathfinder if it had rolled over my foot.
Who would think that a Pathfinder would handle better than a 12 passenger Ford Econoline 350?
Oh, everyone.
And they would be right. I call my van a shoebox on wheels but I love my shoebox; it's dependable and large. We will be driving it to Colorado with 7 kids this summer. Did I say it's large?
...But the lure of the sleek and relatively small Pathfinder. It's like a midlife affair. My 8 year old son summed it up perfectly and completely honestly, "Mom, I like this car better because the van has become too familiar."
