I'm not saying they won't fit, but if I could throw one of my boys on the friggen roof at times And nit go to jail, I would! Lol just saying...
Now I threw them in my M, so I'm no one to talk, but your kids are probably younger then mine...

Couldn't agree with you more Mel. I have a 14 year old daughter and a 12 year old son - like cats and dogs their fighting!!! And like you said, over the dumbest shit.

Dude - go with an SUV.

I have threes kids ranging from 10 to 4. The 4yo is still in a booster. Other than the fighting all three fit in the back with no problems. My wife has an XC90 and the kids still fight even with the increased space.

Have three kids, 5,7 and 17. They fit for short distances. No car seats. Id recommend no more than two for anything other than around town.

Odyssey beats Tahoe hands down for seating/space and comfort.

Get the best of both worlds. We also have a Toyota Sienna. It's been reliable for the past 11 years. Now my wife is eyeing the Acura MDX...3rd row seating as well!

You could probably fit 3 or 4 in the trunk. Throw a bottle of water in with them and they will be fine for most trips.

Im 6'5 280. W/ 3 kids. 9,6,and 4mo. No way in hell they fit in the backseat of an e60.
1 ton mega cab is what i rock. Its pretty much a tahoe w the back cut off and a truck bed attached, the back seats recline and everything. Itll fit 6 grown men my size no prob comfortably. Itll tow 14k lbs so i got a ton of power for my 27' toy hauler

Lmao!!! At big john. Distraught minivan owner look is priceless
