I agree with you 100%. But, there is irony in your statement.

Can you say:

VW Routan

No, but I'm sure once the Routan has a Porsche crest applied and is sold as the next vehicle after the Panamera, I'm sure I will learn how to say it.

Porsche has prototyped and considered a minivan in the past. Hope that one never happens.

I don't understand the pricing on that "thing" either. $40K for the "Premium" model.

I figure that the average Routan customer does not know that it is a Chrysler. VW must be getting the platform for a song.

Hmmm...

No 3rd or 4th row seat, no sliding side doors, low range, big V8, adjustable height, a real tow rating, goes around curves like a sports car.....




Nope. Not a minivan.
