lol hubby and I trade off on who geeks out on what... vaping is my research pet project... and ewwww on vans, lol, suv or truck only for this household.
...I know I know... My wife wanted an SUV. If you think about it, It's all about looks. I wanted the van for vacations and just regular hauling. As much as people say they hate vans, they sure ask if I could haul this or haul that. Seats the same amount of people, automatic doors, and with tonnes of cargo capacity. I'd say as much as a mid sized truck.... but with a roof.

No seats were removed when they took this picture.
My wife doesn't like the idea of the looks of the van, but loves the practicality of it. When we brought our son back from boot camp, we took him, his friend, their two body bags, duffle bags, and all there gear and our suitcases.... all while still having 7 seats available.
Ok.. enough ranting about it.. the van is "MY baby".. it's one of those things you just don't get until you own one.
Oh, and the cups fit a releaux quite nicely, with an AC outlet to plug my nitecore D4 into.
