I've been working BMET on the vet side for 14 years for a large company. Vet side is interesting because you can be installing a CT scanner one day and then trouble shooting a Pelton and Crane OCR autoclave the next. Kind of a jack of all trades deal. I didn't think I'd be doing this till I retire but at this point I don't think I can go somewhere else and start over. I'm trying to violate the no job posting so sorry if this falls into that but any technicians in N. Illinois who are curious about the vet field shoot me a message.

Stay safe out there!

We have a ford flex and a town and country mini van. The minivan is our go to for vacations because of rear cargo storage. We use that and the stow and go floorboard storage and a roof rack. The flex was fine for all of us going somewhere for the day. I know the explorer has less rear storage than the van. I’m just wondering if any other family of six utilize one of these for trips. I’m thinking if I had a trailer hitch storage rack and a roof rack I could probably make up for losing that space.

Kids are 18/16/14/12. So we have two graduating pretty quickly, which makes me also think that it would make more sense to get this instead of spending all the extra money in a new minivan, which are crazy expensive right now.
