Diana waves goodbye to the minivan that we've had since 2007, through four sons learning to drive, with dents and scratches from inexperienced drivers. We transferred our suitcases and travel gear from the MPV into a smaller Mazda5, to continue our journey from Iowa east to Toronto. We removed practically everything from the vehicle destined for the scrap yard. The 4.5 hour drive home taught us the difference in visibility on a shorter car, since we've been driving taller minivans since the early 1990s.
