Cleats by Bill Hinds for February 18, 2021

Well, mine is “Quartz White” with some pearl in it. Also had a minivan and loved it, I actually hated to get rid of it.

So, what’s wrong with mommyvans?

I’ve never really liked either SUVs or Minivans – though I always found Minivans more practical. The first time I remember being interested in an SUV was in a Mercedes commercial where they were advertising one of the first AMG versions of their smaller SUV as the world’s first 150 MPH SUV. THEN I was interested. :-)

I’ve got a Lincoln from 2002.

Compare their shapes. Big SUVs are just pregnant station wagons. Give the station wagon four wheel drive light, and better ground clearance, much like a push-up bra, and suddenly it’s quasi-manly.

I think Toyota calls theirs, “battleship gray.”

They used to call SUVs “station wagons”, just sayin’

If it does not have 4WD and All Terrain tires (minimum), it ain’t really an SUV.

they are all just a “tall station wagon”
