car type for 4 adults and 4 children

Hi Guys

Just wondering what would be the best car to get for 4 adults with 4 kids, 8,7,5,4

Last time i got a standard SUV which was a 7-8 seater (Traverse)

I a thinking of getting a full size SUV or a mini van although i would prefer a full size suv.

I am not sure how will take the bags to the hotel too?

Any suggestions?

Most Full size SUV's only have 7 seats, so you will be a seatbelt short. There's also not a great deal of luggage space with all the seats up, especially for 8 people's luggage. Might be better with a 8 seater minivan.

i think you need to google ford e350 or chevrolet express that's the options i think, but size wise think the of the A TEAM van for width and transit minibus for length.

hope that is some help
