You were, and you did. Except for the 'large enough for a family trip' part, but that's apparently because you're a small family in number and total volume. Try it in that car with two teenaged boys. There is no car at that price point that would work for the 'average' family in this scenario, IMO. (About 1.9 kids.)

I mean hell, a Ford Fiesta is a nice little car, and I have a couple of friends with them, so I've had a chance to tool around in them. At 6'3", no fucking way could I drive it comfortably long distances, much less shove two 6'+ teens in the back seat. Not a chance in hell. Fails the 'large enough' metric in my book. Glad it works for you and yours. You better hope your one kid stops growing. lol
