and is talking about what sounds like occasional use.
Day-in, day-out is a very different game, taking kids to day care, playgroup, school, sports events, hauling their friends, and doing errands with the urchins in tow. Sanity is worth a lot. So is your wife's happiness, as she'll probably be doing more of the kid schleping that you will.
And on your multi-hour trips to the mountains, especially with all the associated kid gear, you'll be glad of the extra space. No, minivans aren't fun to drive, but there's a reason they're popular: they do the job well. Get a CPO van to save money, keep the 'vert if you can, or get a nice used 9-5 or 9-3 for commuting, etc. That way you still have a "fun" ride.
