My only hesitation is the weather protection of the suitcases when loaded on the truck bed.
We'll do one longer drive from West Palm Beach area to Orlando and back.
The cost is equal almost down to the dime.

Regarding models at FLL, what's your experience of the SPAR, any chances of a F150 (or even better a F250)?
I read in previous post that one should expect KIA Sedona for the MVAR, is it the "new" 2016 Sedona?

Also, what are you takes on a truck over a minivan?

The Sedona is very comfortable for 6 people, but there isn't a lot of cargo space with the back seats in use (the middle row are captains chairs). I find you either get 4 people and a lot of stuff, or 6 people and very little stuff. So if you have a lot of luggage, I would lean towards the truck.
