[NSRCA-discussion] Small Car - 2 m plane hauling

[John Pavlick]

Took the words right out of my mouth. A Caravan makes a great "aircraft carrier"! The money you save on the purchase of a mini van vs. an econo box will buy a LOT of gasoline.

          Look at a 04 or so Scaryvan, My wife has one (Had 5 total 1993-2004) it gets great mpg (24-26) and can haul several 2x2 and field support equipment plus you'll have about $13,000 left over for more planes.

              Hi Guys,

   

  I commute about 75 miles a day, then do about 100 miles of driving a weekend for practice so I am on the road a lot.  I am thinking to down sizing one of my cars.  At this point, I’m thinking about these three:   
      
    
   Scion XB, 28, hwy mileage  
   Honda Fit, 34, hwy mileage  
   Chevy HHR, 30 , hwy mileage  
   $ these around $16,000
      
  Here is a nice website that allows you to do car by car comparisons.  http://scionbuyersguide.theautochannel.com/compare_details.php?car1=21667&car2=22687&car3=22711&car4=   
      
  OR – is something like the Dodge Grand Caravan the way do go, and that is the biggest bang for the buck?    
      
  Any ideas would be great.    
  Thanks,   
  Jim
