That’s the worst scenario but not a disaster. We shall soon see. 👍🤷

Had 6 adults, 2 large suitcases, 4 medium, 1 small, 2 dufflebags, 3 backpacks and a mobility walker in a 7 seat minivan last Saturday. Each adult had an uncramped seat and nothing on their laps.

Just fold one of the middle seats down, as they go flat into the floor and disappear you have buckets of space.

The tahoe was a 2019 tahoe, i picked up on the 2 March, the rear seat is not big enough and it has zero boot. I am a size 7 shoe and i had to run my feet sideways in the rear bench.

I would not consider the tahoe a 7 seater. It is a 4 seater with 3 seats stuffed in the boot.

Thanks for info. That is good to hear about the mini van. May think again. It’s not the Tahoe we were going for though it’s the Suburban and it is much a quite a bit bigger.
However, you have given us food fornthoigh re the mini van. 👍

We are a party of 7 and for the last two holidays and the upcoming one we have had a Suburban. We love it! No problem with cases on the way from the airport to the villa, but on the way back home my DH has to play some sort of Krypton Factor game to get them all fitted in. He's always won though!

Just watched that whole video, comedy gold. I wonder if Phil is a success and will any of those tourists own up to being on the Dibb.
