Matt, I know you said that you are looking at another brand vehicle
other than Ford, however, I have a 2014 Ford Flex and love it. I can fit
2 pattern planes (2 meter) in it, plus all the support equipment,
folding chairs, pop up canopy, plus luggage. It has a good, quiet ride,
excellent gas mileage (22-25 mpg on most long trips), and is fun to
drive. I'm not a car salesman so I have nothing to pitch. You may want
to consider this vehicle. ...Charlie

I am thinking around the first part of summer to acquire a new set of wheels. Since Ford no longer makes any kind of minivan other than the transit, or something IMO ugly, I think I may break the family history and go with something other than a FORD..... I believe I have made the decision to focus on the Dodge Caravan with the stow and go seats, and the knowledge that many D4 fliers own them. Is there anyone out there that has had bad experiences with the Caravan ?? What ever vehicle I do purchase, I believe I will pay the little extra money to get it undercoated due to the salt issues with Ohio and Michigan driving.
