America's first Hybrid Minivan, Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid

We are in the market for a new van, and my hubs recommended checking out the new Chrysler Pacifica hybrid minivan. If that means I never have to see another gas station, that is some serious motivation. Here are my thoughts via video and lists: * This post may contain affiliate links and here is the link to my updated information and privacy policy.* This post is not sponsored in any way, just me sharing!

Pros and Cons of the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid- for a family of five or more:

Pros:  

1. Hybrid.  I mean that is just really cool.
2.The drivers side and passenger side seats are very comfortable.
3. Air flow vents in the driver and passanger seats
4. heated steering wheel
5. SAFETY FEATURES
6. 360 camera
7. games and activities in the entertainment center.

Cons:

1.  Only non stowable captains chairs in the second row due to the battery.

2.  Only two (in headrest) screens for movies and entertainment (kid in the third row gets nada).

3. The games and activities in the screens.  I will have to tell them ALL the time to turn it off.

4. Storage.  With a kid in the third row, I can't use the trunk space for dedicated storage. 

5. The battery life isn't super long, especially when running the A/C or driving long distances.  For me it works because I barely leave my neighborhood.



I think the biggest thing for us is not being able to have all three in the middle row.  When test driving it, that feature didn't go over very well.  Insert eye roll.  While we are on this minivan quest, do you have one that you can recommend?


Also, I have linked the tee shirt that I was wearing in the video (it is one of my most favorite ever).
