Highlander with kids, or Sienna?

[shoto]

Hello,
I hope you can help a newbie here. I'm looking at purchasing a used Highlander. I have 2 kids in carseats and 1 labrador retriever that goes with us too. Will a highlander be enough room for this, plus stroller, etc., or should I just get the minivan? Any big pros of the Highlander over the Sienna?

We just got an 07 and LOVE it. The sienna would definately be bigger. The highlander has better ratings but the sienna is still up there as well.

Now my situation is a little different than yours. I have three kids 14, 12, and 8. Today AND when they were younger, there has always been no question that when we all go somewhere, it's the Sienna. If a kid or adult is not going with, we'll take my Highlander or my wife's rav 4.

Any long trip, Sienna. All of us, Sienna.

Hope this helps.

At least with the Highlander, you don't have to give up your WHOLE man card.
