I had a cute little VW Beetle when I found out I was expecting triplets. I sold that and we leased a Honda Odyssey. I never thought I would like a mini van either, however, I just LOVE this car. Definitely at least do a test drive in either a Toyota Sienna or the Odyssey. They handle amazingly well and it is so easy to get the kids in and out. Lots of cargo space for strollers and other baby gear too. Our Odyssey also has the DVD player in the back...great for long trips or times we are stuck in traffic!

Our other car is a Honda Civic. We are able to fit three Sunshine Radian carseats in the back no problem. You can measure the backseat width and get an idea of which carseats will fit. The Sunshine Radian 65 or 80 are two of the narrowest carseats on the market and are also very sturdy. You would have to check the weight allowances though...I believe they start at 7 lbs but I cannot be sure about that!
