We are expecting our 3rd child in july, so its time to upgrade the family vehicle to something that holds more people. We've been looking for 7 passenger vehicles. Can you recommend a kid friendly vehicle that you have had experiance with? I really like the jeep commanders.

We are now on our second Kia Sedona. It has air bags all round the sides (it has a 5 star safety rating) and the warranty is virtually unbeatable at 10 years/ 100,000 miles. We've never had a problem with either one of the vans and the new model has stow and go seats to create more space easily. I would highly recommend this van.

We lived in Calgary, Canada with our first one and had to drive in snow a lot and it performed great. I wouldn't even consider another van at this point to be honest.

I think the dodge mini-vans are great for kids. Easy to get them all loaded in and out. Easy for car seats too. Kia's have great warranties though so i'd check around. I used to own a jeep cheerokee best vehicle I have ever owned. Never had one problem with it ever. I would buy another jeep in a heart beat.

we have a jeep cherokee now :) i love it. we've been saying for years that they should come out with a 7 passenger and they finally did but i'm not sure how easy they are to get 3 young kids in and out of.

Yes, i've been a mechanic for years now and i'd recomend a dodge caravan or ford windstar minivans. Most of the other aren't dependable and aren't very good in most driveing connditions.
