This is no minvan

Looks like this "minivan" is handling the problem pretty well. As the saying goes..."this ain't no minivan!"

RE: This is no minvan

Thanks for the mini-review. Good to see you like the car. I'm glad I selected the R500, although the reports on the 350 have been positive in most cases.

Doesn't this seem more than a little like the Pacifica?

I just don't have the time to respond to this comment which has been made by first time thread visitors and which has been answered so many times. Check out the many threads and read some of the many reviews then answer your own question.

Your snotty comment warranted an equally stupid response I just wanted to communicate on your level.

Enjoy your R class, it probably is a lot nicer than the Pacifica but it still looks like one.

RE: This is no minvan

It better provide all of the benefits of a minivan.

Otherwise why would you buy one?

Get an S if you don't have small kids, or three kids or both.

The R will move into my stable once it is as useful for us as our minivan.

In two years.
