Oh and the Walmart comments, joking or not, are old. I'd defend Packrat even if he didnt want me to. I work in a stockroom myself, and let me tell you, I break a sweat trying to make day-side pull times (in which overnight pulls are even larger than the dayside ones) So..
No more stockroom jokes on PackRat
Pulling a pallet loaded with 100 cases of 24 pack cola is no easy task. Which is why I use the walkie-stacker and forklift as much as posible.

It kind of reminds me of the Colt Vista I used to drive.

The original Odyssey makes a great family vehicle.
However, it's more of a tall wagon than a minivan. The benefits of this are relatively good maneuverability and fuel economy. The drawbacks are a tighter rear seat and far less cargo capacity than you're used to. You will also lose your trailer towing ability.
However, if you're looking to seat up to 4 regularly and don't need to tow or regularly haul lots of bulky cargo, it's a great choice, and the price is excellent.

For 5 grand it is hard to go wrong. I considered one before I got the Escape but was put off by the ludicrous resale value and the fact they don't have much oomph, however since neither is a concern go for it.

That model is the same as the Izuz Oasis if im not mistaken. Which company actually put the car together? I think Honda. Either way great deal!
