Unfortunately, it may be time to sell off my F150. The truck is too big with my wife's new van in the garage. Not much room to maneuver her van in and out, so we're thinking of trading the F150 for a 4Runner. Slightly narrower width will help, but the much shorter length will make a big difference, as our garage is side entry. She's doing those Goldmember 37 pt turns to get the van in the garage.
Anyway, the only thing that concerns us is outings with kids. We've got 2 with one on the way. One will be in a booster soon, and the other will be in a child seat for a little while longer. Is this going to be too crowded for a mid-size SUV? If I get one, I plan to immediately get a proper roof rack (like a Frontrunner). Hopefully that takes care of our cargo needs. Trailer is not an option, as my house just doesn't have the room.
For day to day stuff, they'll be in the wife's van, so not a big issue. I'm just concerned the 4-10 hr drives may be a bit much with them so close together. If any of you have been in a similar situation, I'd love some input.
Thanks.
