welcome to the forum and congrats on the kid.

 

thanks chipper

 

Great choice of a car!!! Any photos to share?

 

Gratz! I just picked my Evo up yesterday, they are fun cars!

 

Welcome and enjoy (the kid)

 

Congrats and welcome to the club.

 

Now the thread is great

 

^^^Well you can take pictures! That's exactly how you photograph a black car.

 

See this is how it is done. I'm having a kid. Followed by - I picked up an EVO. Not I picked up a mini van because omg kidz.

Lot of good information out there if you search as far as what strollers will fit in the trunk (it's limited) Also since you have AWD it will probably mean a tow if you get a flat so just ditch all that hardware and free up some extra space. Enjoy the car!

 

welcome man, good choice on the car. Its perfect for the new addition! Be sure to buy recaro child seats

 

Yes!!!! Exactly! Lol.

Welcome! Drive safe and enjoy the car! It looks great and you got it at really low mileage too!

 

Evo is certainly awesome, but a Sienna minivan with coilovers can handle reasonably well as well. I just can't take SUVs. Selfish Useless Vehicle.

Edit: Sorry for bringing up Sienna before bring up the real van. When car guys buy vans, we buy the real van - totally pimped mobile Mercedes-Benz Metris by Explorer. (example: https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/d...3065/overview/).

 

Nice!!any pics??

 

I'm not sure everyone looks at this way, but the EVO is actually a pretty good choice for a family car. For the practical side of you, it's good in the snow (I live in the northeast) and it has 4 doors so it can fit car seats. For the fun side of you, it can race around on weekends. The only drawback is the trunk -- tough to fit anything in there.

At least this is how I convinced my wife ...
