Thanks for the heads up on the PHEV and the stow-and-go seats. That one would be a no-go for us because we it to haul stuff all the time. With the seats fully stowed it's practically as good as a pickup truck.

Of course, you have to get all the toy cars and goldfish crackers off the floor first if you want the seats to actually stow.

I've found the goldfish crackers readily crush themselves out of the way and the dust vacuums up fairly easily, especially if left to age for at least three months. Toy cars can definitely bugger up latches and hinges, though.

BETTER than a pickup in my opinion! You can lock the doors.

I called my parents minivan the indoor pickup truck, the seats spent more time stowed to haul stuff then not (after kids were grown)
