Yes. I grew up in a Volvo station wagon that did pretty much this but with significantly less room. #lifeinreverse

Yes, but it will be a tight fit in the back seat with 3 wide (assumes captain seats for the middle row). Sienna owner here. Also the cargo area isn’t as big as you may think, so if this is a vacation, may need to look into a cargo carrier for the roof.

If the seat configuration is the same, then I’m pretty confident it will be the same as I described. It should work, but it won’t be particularly comfortable. Minivans are “big”, but at the same time, not as big as you may think. Did a 10 hour vacation drive with 4 adults and 2 kids, without a rooftop cargo hold, and every nook and cranny was filled.

This would be no problem for my old Toyota Sienna.

The relative wants her ex-husband to leave their son in her care when he travels out of town but the ex-husband disagrees. The relative wants to know her chances of prevailing if she were to appear in court on this issue. Thoughts? Thanks!

The world is not going to get easier. So maybe we can help each other get better at dealing with it. Who had a win recently? How did you do it?

Having tough time deciding between IB & Consulting.

Additionally, you can do IB intern and full time consulting but not vice versa. I prefer consulting, but IB seems like the "safer" option? And if consulting does get hit hard, I would hopefully have a full time IB offer via internship.
