Er? I've always hated minivans. I remember joking that I was going to wind up with one, but I never seriously considered it, and if that's where Pete is leaning then Pete's going to be the one driving it. I'm not driving a minivan every day. It's like piloting a yacht, even more so than the SUVs.

And it's hardly like I'm being the big meanie who is taking his car away. It's pretty impractical to keep up a payment on a car that is not useable AT ALL for the family.

Edit--that sounded brattier than I intended. Anyway, my point is that it IS ridiculous to keep up payments on a car that is that impractical. And I was surprised P would say that, since I have already nixed the van thing.
