MINVAN - 8 SEATER
« on: December 19, 2013, 03:28:59 PM »
I’m looking to purchase a minivan that seats 8.

Do you have any suggestions or recommendation? Are any vans convertible?

Funds are limited and I have no specific upgrades that I need.

Maybe a little more  specific and someone can help you.
New or used?
Location? (I cannot choose between Lakewood and Brooklyn, but I'd guess Brooklyn)
Budget?

Brooklyn.

Used - the questions is how used. I was hoping to stay under 10k but am not sure if that is doable.

I have a (2001) Town and Country now with two 3 seat benches. Can that be done on newer models?

Siennas seem very pricey not sure if it makes sense to go that way.

I'm here to be convinced.

05 Odyssey and newer if it's the ex model have 8 seats and can be less than 10k. Sienna also can have 8 seats...
Mr minivan and AandR in brooklyn have decent stuff.

Does that void insurance?

About a year ago, my sister bought an 05 Sienna, 8 seats, fully loaded, leather, sunroof, after market stereo, subwoofer, etc for under 10k, from Motti's in Lakewood.  I forgot the mileage, but I'm pretty sure it was under 100k.

???
I had heard that this type of change to the car (from what I heard, they weld in a bench in place of the bucket seats) would allow insurance to deny a claim in the case of an accident.
