We've looked/test driven a 5 including an overnight so we could see how carpool with 5 kids goes and so far so good with a few exceptions.
The one we drove was a 2009 and the antenna hits our garage door and on the way outis a pretty hard bend. Any shorter ones that work well?
The rear seat belts don't even touch our oldest 2 kids' chest/shoulder. They are sitting on booster bottoms, and I figure we need to attach the belt positioning straps. After searching a ton, I don't see much concern over it. Our kids are 5/6/9 so they should fit for a few more years though the 9 year old (just turned) is already 4'6".
A small item: all 4 dash vents were broken on the one we test drove, what's up with that?
We have a minivan and 4-dr Accord currently. The van was hit pretty bad last week plus has some other issues so it's time to replace it and if the 5 is too small in the long run, I'll drive it and ditch the Accord for another minivan down the road.
