Despite what their names suggest, many sport utility vehicles aren't as
accomplished as minivans when it comes to everyday utility — like comfortably shuttling a bunch of family members around town or moving a big piece of furniture.
I'll be honest: I was supposed to drive a Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid during my trip to California to work at the 2017 Arse Freeze - a-Palooza 24 Hours of Lemons race at Sonoma Raceway, because I learned that racers are always shopping for
minivans (
as part of an effort to
accomplish all street - car needs with
as few vehicles
as possible, leaving more room and money for race cars) when I took a Sienna to the B.F.E. GP race over the summer.
