Rav4 has available 3rd row, but will realistically only fit children.

Need Advice on car that seats 7.
My Honda CRV was stolen so I have to buy a new car. With a growing family I want a crossover or mini-van with seating for 7. I know nothing about cars and would appreciate some advice. Thanks!

How many kids do you have? how old? how many in car seats?
I think most of the non-minivans that have 6 or 7 seats have middle row seats that fold forward to allow access to the third row. This can be a problem if you have car seats in the middle row._______________

Yeah, how old are your kids? Most of the 3rd row seat on the 7 seater SUV are meant for kids under 5 ft tall, not very comfortable.
if 7 seater is a must for you, I will suggest you get a mini-van....
Good luck on the car shopping.....I lost my SUV a few years ago, I know how inconvenient it can be....

yeah the 08 grand caravan seems descent for your 7 person seating requirements, plus soo cheap compared to all the other cars, and plus it comes with the 3yr warranty, so just get it on lease and no worries. Or you can get a Sienna and pay double the price.

Thanks for the advice. I have 2 kids, 3 years and 8 months. I am leaning towards the Caravan as I like the swivel seat option. I just find it really boring looking. A used car dealership near my house had an '07 Durango for 26,000 and I loved how it looked although it's very environmentally unfriendly.

I like the look of that new Mazda CX-9. Don't know much about it but I know it seats 7.
