I’m going for a dodge grand caravan with the stow n go fold flat seats because I’m going to pick some things i won from an estate sale in naples although, the grand caravan is not the best vehicle it serves a purpose i used the stow n go seats folded them down and slept in a rented grand caravan i do this when i end up staying at cheap motels or when I accidentally reserve at a days inn I’ve found that I’d much rather sleep in a rental car than stay at a days inn and I’ve almost ended up staying at motels that resemble the real life bates motel especially in BaltimoreHummer wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:02 amGreat trip, you should get a 5 series again for such a distance. Then it will become very comfortableLauderdalerick wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:00 am

For transport purposes the BMW 5 series is of course not a good solution. Such a Dodge serves much better. The Grand Caravan you`ll book from Enterprise ?Lauderdalerick wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:04 am

Yes or I’ll snag one from the emerald aisle New Orleans airport which is full of grand caravans I don’t mind the grand caravan but it’s not my favorite especially because it has so much hard plastics and sometimes the grand caravans have a clunk in the gear I’m hoping to get a grand caravan gt but I’m fine with an sxt modelHummer wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:12 amFor transport purposes the BMW 5 series is of course not a good solution.

Both are fine, the GT and the SXT model. The clunk in the gear I never experienced. Hard plastics, ok, the price for lots of space

It`s the choice between SUV and Van. Both have advantages. Personally I`m not so much in favour of vans even they offer lots of space.Lauderdalerick wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:20 am

I liked the durango but i was not a fan of the gas mileage it ran out of gas in key west and i had to get roadside assistance and i made frequent stops for gasoline because of the durango’s dismal gas mileageHummer wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:25 amIt`s the choice between SUV and Van.

To need roadside assistance is not an advertisement for a car. And frequent stops for gasoline is annoying. Better not to rent a Durango anymore.Lauderdalerick wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:26 am
