In my 4 cyl Accord, I am frequently alone. Plus, I drive about 18,000 miles a year so I get the fuel efficient one.
DW has a 6 mile commute each way to work. I actually pass her work down and back each day, but she reports later, often works later, and sometimes keeps weird hours, so the carpool idea wouldn't work. In addition, my Accord is the "errand runner" for most things.
The minivan is used when we go somewhere as a family (4 of us), vacations, if family and friends are in town, or if I need to haul something for the ever constant home improvements. DW fills up every 2 weeks, and I fill up every 7-8 days.
So far, the system works..........
