I'm not sure where to post this, so hopefully this is somewhat appropriate.

We are renting two minivans for 8 people on an upcoming trip. We want 3 adults and 2 kids in car seats in one van and 3 adults with all the luggage in the other van. We have rented Dodge Caravans if that is helpful. This is what I see us taking with us:

6 large suitcases
4 carryon suitcases
1 Bob Stroller
1 City Mini stroller
2 diaper bags
1 Pack n Play
1-2 backpacks

Is this going to fit? We're trying to convince other people to not bring nearly as much as they are but we're not succeeding. TIA

Should be fine - half of that would fit in some (not all) regular-sized SUVs.

As erik123 said, this should be fine, but I can't guarantee that you won't need to put some of the stuff in the second van. There's a ton of space behind the third row, so if you can't get all of the luggage into the van with the 3 adults, you should still have ample room for the kid-related stuff (diaper bags, strollers and Pack & Play) in the well behind the last row of seats.
