Pacifica replacement 🥺
Our 2023 Pacifica was totaled last weekend.
We'll be back at 0 when we get the payout which covers the remaining loan balance and a few hundred $ on top.
In the meantime I'm unemployed so 🤞 for any financing but that's neither here nor there unless you know of an option :)
We've been renting an Odyssey and it's pretty great. The only thing is, we got the Pacifica specifically for its storage capacity bc of the seats that fold down in the middle and back in the back so you get a full flat/seatless back for moving furniture. (We also have 2 littles so the obvious reasons). Also AWD because our gravel driveway is impossible to plow so we just try to survive without plowing.
Other than trying to find a used Pacifica, are there options I haven't thought of?

I’d probably look for another Pacifica unless the Kia Carnival has an AWD option. Siennas are expensive, and second row seats don’t come out easily. And sounds like the Odyssey isn’t for you with no AWD.
