The Death of the Minivan


After spending about 5 unnecessary hours in the car yesterday, I realized that I had missed something. The death of the minivan.

Not only did I see nary a minivan on the road, I also realized that I don't know a single person why owns one, nor do I know the name of the minivan for any major car companies.

It kind of made me sad knowing that this disappearance happened without so much as a funeral or even an announcement that owning a minivan was no longer socially acceptable.

So minivan, I salute you and will pour out some Hennessey tonight for you and your dead homies.

The highway and carpool lanes around the country will never be the same.
