Anyway, another vote for a minivan when you have 2+ little kids. We also tried to avoid it but caved in the end. A little bit of my husband's soul died that day, but we love it and don't regret it at all. It just works perfectly at this stage in life.
We looked at the Odyssey, Sienna and Caravan and surprisingly ended up with the Caravan. I figured if I was going to drive a minivan, I wanted all the bells and whistles (plus my husband is pretty tall, so we wanted power seats) and the higher models of the first two were more than we wanted to spend on a minivan. And honestly? I don't regret it for a second.

I re-emphasize the 2014 Highlander. We have a 3.5 yr-old and a 10-month old and it's fantastic - even with the rear-facing seat there is a ton of room (the driver seat is fully pushed back with the baby seat behind it), and the trunk is huge (3rd row down) - we can easily fit a stroller and do a full $400 Costco grocery load without any issues. And it's not a minivan.
