We know the stereotype of the minivan drivers. They are all moms taking their kids to soccer games and grocery shopping and doing other mom-related activities. Firstly, what is wrong with that? Secondly, there are lots of reasons why a minivan is the best family vehicle. We’ll tell you some reasons why.

You just passed a minivan on the highway and you’re thinking of putting them down in your head. Stop right there! Those minivan drivers are wise for many reasons and know things you probably do not. This is why you buy a minivan:

1: Vans have sliding doors.

Talk about convenience! getting kids and cargo into a van is much easier with sliding doors that are never in the way and are easier to close. Most vans today even have automatic doors that close with the push of a button. There are also safety measures in many vans to present fingers from getting smashed by the door. That is pretty handy!

2: Cargo Space Galore

Have you ever wondered if you could fit 15 laundry baskets full of clothes in your little sedan? Well, you would never have to worry about that if you were driving around in a minivan. You can haul just about anything in one of these!

3: Safety Features All Over

Minivans are THE family car. Because of this, they are often extremely safe and come with a large number of awesome safety features like extra airbags and a rear-view camera to keep the driver and passengers safe.

4: Cheap to Insure

Minivans are made to be safe and comfortable. They are not made to catch attention or impress people. As a result of this, they are some of the cheapest vehicles to insure. Nobody wants to spend a ton on insurance, so that’s pretty neat.

See? There are so many reasons to buy a minivan. If you are starting to think about it, we suggest coming in to test drive a Dodge Grand Caravan or the Chrysler Town and Country. Both models feature all the awesome benefits of a minivan that we mentioned… and then some!
