Which is hilarious because every "soccer mom" is currently driving around in a Suburban or Expidition now.

Especially when you consider a minivan has more utility than any SUV.

Minivans are useful, the only vehicle that 90% of vehicle buyers really need.
They are just not cool or affordable...maybe Pacifica ads with Pantera are the answer. LOL

The VW ID Buzz is cooler than every single SUV on the market. Except maybe the Jeep Wrangler, Ford Bronco, Ineos Grenadier, Mercedes G Wagon, and maaaybe the land rover defender. And that's really stretching it lol.

Check this thing out!

The Pacifica isn't a bad looking van either. I wonder what Chrysler could make if they were allowed to make a non-grand caravan. Maybe a lightweight 2.0T build? Stick the hurricane I6 in the long wheelbase and call it an SRT6? OFFER IT WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION bwahahhaa. Paddle shifters at least. Right now 80s chic is all the rage, and the Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager were DRIPPING IN THAT DELICIOUS 1980S AURA.

Rivian kinda got it with the R3x

Something with that angular design language. Make it cheap. ONLY SELL IT IN COOL COLORS. Collab with Solo to make a Jazz Cup special edition. Sell a Chrysler with the fake wood paneling!

BRING BACK THE WOOD PANELING YOU COWARDS!

Y'know, they COULD do a wacky paint job on the Pacifica, too.
What was the original Scooby-Doo van based on? And did it say Scooby-Doo on the side?

Nah the original just said Mystery Machine. It was not based on any one particular van, just various 1960s-1970s vans.

Thought so. It does look very random. Sure looks like an A-van in profile shape and headlight/parking-light placement but no big round thing in front. (More the one on the left.)
