About This Quiz
As a mother and a woman, you have a lot of different sides of your personality. You still want to be the person that you are, but you have to be a mother too. This can be hard in all walks of life, but even more so when it comes to picking out a vehicle. You want something fun and that suits your personality, but you also want something practical, that you can fit all of the kids in, and that you aren't going to get too bummed out about if it gets trashed because kids totally trash things you know; it is a scientific fact.
So what do you do? Jam all of the kids in a little sports car that is fun to drive, or buy some big clunky SUV that is hard to drive and is bad on gas. Or, maybe there is something in between that you could do? Of course, this all depends on how many kids you have and how many friends they have that you are carting around. When will your kids get their license? If it isn't soon, you might want to take this quiz to help you figure out which car is best for you and your family.
