Weddingbee boards

So, we started TTC about three months ago, and my husband is currently the proud owner of a 210 two seater Toyota Tacoma that he possibly loves more than me.  I drive a normal 5 seater car, and we each commute an hour in opposite directions, so to me it doesn't make sense that whoever is home with a baby uses the car, and the other drives the gas guzzler...

I'm curious how other bees have worked it out with a car that's not family friendly??

We're not TTC (we're NTNT) but I'm ready for an "upgrade" from my current car and we are trying to keep future kiddos in mind with this purchase for that reason.

I have a 2-door "sports" car, FI has a four-door truck. His truck is fine for fitting carseats and kids in it, but it's a gas guzzler. My car is great on gas, but we couldn't comfortably fit people into it. We're going to trade mine in on either a four-door sedan or small SUV with a priority being fuel economy.

I take it the issue is that you know he wouldn't want to upgrade his truck?

@AmeliaBedelia: I'm sure he would trade it in if need be, and we're in Canada, so I have a year where I won't be going to work, so this can somewhat be a problem for future Sapphiresun, but I'm hoping somebody has success stories of sharing one kid friendly vehicle.

@SapphireSun: Well, FWIW, my parents did when my mom stayed at home with me and my middle brother. But she kept the family friendly one with her (to get us places) and he drove his non-family friendly one to work.
