Re: Need some parental advice

I'd stick with the LS. There' no need for an SUV, especially with gas prices the way they are, save your money for the college education! I have 2 kids of my own and we never got an SUV. We traded in my wife's Beretta for a Chrysler LHS, and then traded that in for a minivan a couple of years later. The kids either ride in the minivan or my Buick Roadmaster. If you need more space to haul things, a minivan can have more space than an SUV, get better gas mileage, and usually be less expensive to repair,( that is if she decides she needs something with more space.) SUVs are not necessarily safer either. I live in an area that can get up to 200 inches of snow a season and I see plenty of SUVs off the road and in ditches when the weather is bad.Good luck at convincing your wife.
