Kinda Confused
I just need to get some thoughts out and see what you guys think. I LOVE my Monte. Always have. I wish it was an SS instead of an LS, but that's ok.
I recently put my LS up for sale with the intention of getting an SS. Now, here's my delima...
We have a 2 1/2 year old and a 10 month old. It is a pain in the rear to get the kids in and out of the back seat of the Monte. So, I was thinking about getting an Impala instead. But, I do not like the interior in the Impala as much as I do in the Monte. So then I was thinking about an SUV of some sort. But I honestly don't like the idea of that either. Quite frankly, I have never owned a car that I like as much as the Monte.
My head hurts from thinking about it. I guess I'm just looking for some fresh input. Lol.

I can only imagine what it would be like to get kids in and out of the back seat... However, I do really like the interior of the Monte much more than impalas. Have you ever considered a four door grand prix? I like the interiors of the 04+
Hope you can find something that fits your needs

The 2 1/2 year old isn't too bad because her car seat stays in the car. But getting the other one's car seat out of the back really stinks.
I'm just not sure on the Impalas. The passenger side of the dash bothers me for some reason. Lol. I have thought about the Grand Prix. In the last generation of them, I thought the dash looked cheap. But I could probably live with it. Maybe I'm just too picky. Maybe I need to stop comparing everything to the Montes. Lol.

I have an '04 Monte SS and my wife has a '05 Impala with a split bench (wish it was buckets). But honestly, I like both cars. The impala is not that much different (especially when you look at the pick Jerry posted of one with bench seats and a center console).
