The big-family mobile!

What does it take to get a big family from place to place? A big van! That's right, we did it...we bought a 12 passenger Chevy Express 2500 van this weekend. Conscious of the fact that cars depreciate the moment they leave the lot, we went in search of a great used van that would meet all our needs. We found a 2002 model with only 38,000 miles, at a very nice price. We're having some extras put into it and when it's finished this week, it'll have power windows & locks, cruise control, and even a camera installed to aid visibility when backing up. We were getting to the point of needing 2 cars that can hold several children, with at least one of them able to hold our entire family. Now we can carry extra children, sports gear, and travel in comfort. We're keeping our Town & Country minivan. This is the vehicle to take us into the future!
