Do you find SUVs like better for families especially for those that has more than 1 child?
I am driving a two door car and I foudn it so difficult to take my child in and out with my noodle arms... I like my car because it is my favourite 2 doors sporty kind in red but when it comes to children, it seems like that is not so convenient...
Maybe we will get a SUV when we have another kid.
What about you? What car do you drive?

We drive our national car - Proton. Ours is the Iswara Aeroback version. It's a sedan car as that's what you guys from the States will call, haha!~
Well, we on the other hand who have been colonized by the Brits will speak the Queen's language - saloon car
I'm actually considering to get an SUV if we do relocate later. Will still keep the sedan though

I drive an SUV and a sedan. The SUV is more for my husband's job, although work's been slow so I've been driving it more than he has.
Both suit the family's needs just fine, even with a family of 4, although I have to admit the sedan is more fun to drive as it's more of a sports car (yep, even a 4 door car can be sporty LOL). Not to mention it gets better fuel economy, so I try to drive it more than the SUV because of it. Oh, who am I kidding? It's only because it's more fun to drive, although the better fuel economy is a big plus!
Happy mylotting!
PS Is that your sports car in the picture? It sure is purdy.

Yes, I have a SUV. I had a sedan before, sold it and bought a SUV recently. I think I made the right choice. SUV is much better and safer to drive on icy roads, in the winter time. This winter has been very severe with lots of snow and blizzards.

Is it? I like the SUVs higher and I think it would be easier to take the kids out of the car.

I use to drive a SUV when my kids were little and they use to call it the baby mobile.
Now I drive a 2009 Jeep Liberty Cherokee.

I don't have a family yet but my father always buy sedans since we were small. The five of us fits the sedan well so no need to have an SUV. But when my brothers had families and children, my father opt to buy a SUV so the kids and my inlaws would fit in...hehehe...

Yes it is actually difficult to take public transportation especially when you have kids. Cause you get to bring a lot of things, not to mention that you need to take several rides before you get to your destination. We are trying to invest and buy a car this year. So goodluck to us! :)

I can imagine I have to take my kid to places without my own car, I think it will be a pain in a neck to travel with the diaper bag and stroller...
