    5 Signs It’s Time To Upgrade To The Swagger Wagon And Invest In A Mini Van

    By Friends of Real MommaSeptember 24, 2016No Comments4 Mins Read

    If you think you may have to start driving a minivan soon and are dreading the moment, just relax. The minivan is making a major comeback. Sales of minivans in the US have jumped 21 percent so far this year according to a Bloomberg report. This is mainly due to the fact that the minivan is starting to be seen as something cool, shedding its unhip image with a new moniker, the swagger van. Here is a look at five reasons that you might need to upgrade your ride to a swagger van and invest in a minivan.

    5 Signs It's Time To Upgrade To The Swagger Wagon And Invest In A Mini Van

    1. You’re Sick of Watching the Kids Scramble to Get in Your SUV

    One of the most common reasons that families trade in their SUVs for minivans is that they are much easier to get into. They are slung much lower to the ground, which makes it easier for kids to climb into them. In addition, the third row of seats is much easier to reach in the standard minivan versus the average SUV.

    2. You’re Sick of Your Daily Workout Loading Kids into the SUV

    Sure, it is nice to have buff arms, but most people would rather earn them in the gym. It is a real hassle to lift kids three feet in the air every time you need to load them into the SUV. Not only is it a workout for your arms, but lifting them over and over again in and out of the SUV can be tremendously hard on your back. The low profile of the minivan gives it a major advantage when you are hauling kids around every day. The St George Subaru dealership shows that a minivan like the 2014 Honda Odyssey EX has a maximum ground clearance of six inches, while many SUVs are jacked up more than two feet into the air.

    3. You’re Ready to Experience the Magic of Automatic Sliding Doors

    One of the best features on a minivan is undoubtedly the sliding door. This is especially true when a sliding door comes open automatically with the push of a button. Whenever your hands are full or you don’t want to have to walk all the way around the van, the magic of this feature will amaze you anew every time you use it.

    4. You Know That It’s What’s Inside That Counts

    The minivan may look silly or unattractive on the outside to some, but there is no doubt that it is the champ when it comes to what’s inside a vehicle. The loads of cargo space, comfy seating and premium entertainment systems inside most minivans make them the ideal choice for families who want to ride around in luxury. Take a trip to a St. George Subaru dealership, or one located near you, and have a professional walk you through the various features each minivan comes equipped with.

    5. You Like Great Gas Mileage

    If you want to save money at the pump, then you should take the plunge and trade in your gas-guzzling SUV for a swagger van. Minivans have lighter chassis than SUVs, and they also tend to have much more fuel-efficient engines. This combination means that you get better gas mileage when you drive around in a minivan instead of an SUV. The minivan chassis also makes it easier to handle in city driving conditions.

    As you can see, minivans are really full of secret swagger. The minivan is the perfect example of the adage not to judge a book by it’s over. While it may appear boring on the outside, the minivan is full of lots of useful features on the inside that make it the perfect family vehicle. If you are ready to embrace luxury and convenience, it is time to upgrade your family vehicle to a swagger van.
