Giovani Bernard minivan

There s enough for a NFL rookie to worry about, especially for someone like Giovani Bernard, who is expected to contribute to a playoff contender right away. So Bernard has simplified things. Included in that is eschewing a car payment, because he doesn t own a car. He drives his girlfriend s mom s van instead, as shown on last week s Hard Knocks episode (the second episode premieres Tuesday night at 10 p.m. Eastern and Pacific time on HBO). As a second-round pick by the Cincinnati …

Funny names for minivans

Well. WE DID IT. After nine years of driving the same car, three or four years of pining for a new kid hauler, and at least six months of fervent test driving and saving and researching and negotiating, we finally pulled the trigger. Say hello to our newest family member! I’ll admit, driving away from the dealer with Big Blue in my rearview mirror was a tad bittersweet. I’m usually not the sentimental type, but as my husband pointed out last night, we raised three kids in that …

Minivans and SUVs

Parenting is hard, and your choice of family transport doesn’t need to compound whatever problems are likely to crop up during the course of a day or week. Yet American moms and dads regularly choose vehicles that are less than ideal for the task of hauling a brood and living suburban life, all because they think that minivans aren’t cool.* Let me tell you something: Minivans are cool. Certainly not for their image, as demonstrated by J.D. Power research data, 1 which reveals …

Silhouette minivan

Silhouette minivan

The Oldsmobile Silhouette had a 14-year production run that lasted from 1990 to 2004. The Silhouette was designed with luxury in mind and became the flagship minivan for the brand. Like other minivans of its time, the Silhouette had stiff competition from the newly released Chrysler Town & Country. The unfortunate discontinuation of the Oldsmobile brand led to the demise of not only the Silhouette but also all of the cars in its lineup. The Silhouette was provided with three …

Ford C-Max minivan

Ford C-Max minivan

Three Rows, but Only Two Full-Size The C-Max officially holds seven passengers, but the seating configuration is best described as five-plus-two. The two most rearward seats lack headroom for adults—although they would be adequate for short trips—but smaller children should fit fine. Keeping the third row folded keeps cargo capacity reasonable, as the van accommodates 25 cubic feet behind the second row; only three cubic feet remain in seven-passenger mode. Fold every seat, and …

Credit Kevin Moloney for The New York Times DETROIT — Could driving a minivan, the ultimate embodiment of the suburban family vehicle, ever be considered cool?

In marketing campaigns featuring heavy-metal theme songs, rapping parents, secret agents in cat masks, pyrotechnics and even Godzilla, minivan makers are trying to recast …

If you ve ever seen one of these on the street and wondered what it is, here s your answer: It s the VPG MV-1. If it seems a bit odd to you, that s because it is. I still remember the first time I saw a VPG MV-1. I was working for Porsche at the time, and someone sent us a picture of Jerry Seinfeld standing on a Manhattan street next to his new 911 GT3, GT3 RS or some other highly cool new Porsche that he had customized in some highly cool Jerry Seinfeld way. And there, in back …

Stow away seats minivan

Stow away seats minivan

Pull the carpet that is in front of the seat upwards with both of your hands, and place it to the side. It s preferable to place these carpets outside the vehicle when you do so, but after a few times, you ll be able to determine just how much space you ll need to use to be able to find a place to put these. Pulling up the carpeting, will expose the cabinets that will later hold your seats. Ensure that both headrests are down. If there is a lever or pull-cord to fold these headrests …

That is what I called her. “Ma belle Grand-maman”. And that is what she was. 5 years ago, my grandmother was diagnosed we stomach cancer. Being 85 years old, doctors didn’t want to treat her with chemo, saying that she was to old, and instead they took the cancer out bu taking out 75% of her stomach. The same type of surgery that is done for weight loss so though it stopped the cancer, she struggled to stay close to 100lbs. Over the next five years, there were high and lows with …
