Decisions on a vehicle

Long story short, we had a Dodge Caravan, traded it in for a Dodge Charger. Love the car.
Now we have a Tent trailer, which we adore. So the discussion has been had about upgrading to a hibrid in a couple of years, which means we'd need to upgrade our vehicle.
We've looked at many different vehicles, within the Dodge family (of course!). The Journey is their cross over. SUV seating 7. Nice, but I can see the kids sitting in the seat constantly arguing(Smaller back seat than the Charger..granted you do get 2 of them with a smaller trunk capacity than the Charger as well). And still, not a lot of room. We have TONS of room in the Charger. Seems like we will be getting a newer Minivan. SIGH. Not this year, probably in a year and a half.
At least they have changed their looks in the last couple years.

So I ask Brayden, my son who is 5, what he thought about a minivan vs a Dodge Ram 4 dr truck (which is what I'd love, just not at all realistic). He thinks it over, with his thinking face. And says... "Well, I think the minivan is cheaper and more spacious, I like the truck, but the minivan is better".
I swear they must hear WAY more than they let on. Assuming he isn't a completely over intelligent 5 year old, he obviously picked those thoughts from mine and hubby's conversations. lol
Ahhhh too cute. :)
