Minivans are the best. I own a DGC built in Ottawa. Reliable AF. Huge cargo capacity. Gets 21MPG on the highway. Basically use it as a truck, but it's way more practical than a truck because the cargo capacity is more and your stuff doesn't get wet when it rains.
Only real downsize is tow capacity.
I had a Honda Odyssey, it was a good (and powerful) all around vehicle, but I did not enjoy filling the tank. We drive a Fit now, average 35mpg city and 56mpg highway. Even filling that up bothers me lol.
The thing is I don't drive unless I'm carrying stuff, so a car without cargo space isn't useful.
I get it. That is the nice thing about the Fit, and its fold flat or flip up seats. We have put an 8 foot tree in it; 3 full size IKEA bucket chairs, 4 could have squeezed in passenger seat maybe.

Yeah, odyssey was like that. Super handy during Renos. I just didn't like the "fill'r up" price :)
