Soccer Moms Rejoice: Family Meal Ideal Achievable, Even in Minivan!
Boy, have cars come a long way since my mom's old Toyota Previa, when we freaked out over the mesh seat pockets and retractable cup holder.
Check out the 2008 Chrysler minivan and its new Swivel 'n Go seating system, capable of seating five people around a removable dining table inside the car. Bobby Flay brandished a chocolate layer cake (meant to symbolize Chrysler) and a pork tenderloin with mango salsa (the embodiment of Dodge) at the car's publicity launch (I'm not kidding). Says John H. Zajac, senior editor at Car-Smart News, "It definitely has good McDonald-ibility."
That's not a joke, either.
