Won't an armored Honda Odyssey be more practical for the Iowa City area? Or maybe an armored moped?

Well, actually, it's not the armored part that I like, wish they made a civilian, non-armored one. I like the fact that it's JUST.....A.....TRUCK. It's not a stretched/lifted/chromed out weener substitute, it's not a plushed/infotainmented/heated, massaging seated make-me-not feel so suburban 'cuz I got a truck (but it needs to be comfy, you know????) It's a truck. It is capable. It's not pretty, but it's a truck, dammit.

But speaking of Odysseys...we had kindergarten roundup for the oldest last week...essentially it started just after early out day, so we go there a little early, and I commented "Hey, it's a minivan parade" as all the parents came to pick their kiddos up...seriously, there was like 40 minivans in a line. (full disclosure, we were also in our minivan)

Wine I can see. Champagne though? But it was made in Maui.

This one?

Just for the record...if you want to take a gal on a nice winery visit and have a glass or two at that winery? Yeah, can't do that...it's a working ranch, they said...can't drink what you buy. Have your 3 samples, walk thru the gift shop, then buy something, or don't, but GTFO is basically the deal. We planned to make a couple hours of it, but nope...there's also nothing else out there.

Odysseys are the gold standard for mini-vans though. I figured my sister and niece could at least drive ones of a different color. Two almost identical grays ones confuses me and don't remember which one I road in and which to get back into.

Gotta love when you are jammin' to it in the swagvan and you get a chorus of "Hot Damn" from the 2yr old and 3yr old. It is their favorite song. I had turned it up pretty loud to jam and the three year old says, "Turn it downer!" The 11yr old quickly says, "No, we don't want to turn to a Sam Smith song"

Was driving home tonight in the one of my mini-mobiles when Uptown came on the radio. Was kinda waiting for the "Hot Damn" from the back seat but the back seat was only occupied by a gym bag. In this case the swagvan > than the little old Porsche.
