Same issue as you have. My solution-my dd is my Civic vx, wifes is a C-max. For when we need something for all 6 of us, I bought an older full size conversion van, some I could afford to pay Cash for as I hate payments. If I had to rent a minivan a few times a year, say a week at a time, that would cost me much more than I paid for the plush conversión van.

And for the few times I need something to haul stuff home from a home improvement Store, etc, this van really comes in handy. With quick release seats, I can have a completely flat floor and fit full size pieces of sheetrock for example (without getting wet in inclemente weather).
