Plus, her football micro-hobby is going strong and getting ready for the playoffs. Big announcement for the Car Mom, new merch is here! This one is for all the minivan lovers out there. Since they are on the minivan topic, it's time to talk about Pete Davidson's tricked out minivan. Are you over the "I'm getting a COOL minivan" cliche? Kelly and Lizz also have some new base model luxuries. Some are better than others... Checking in with Industry News, Mitsubishi continues to try and find their way in automotives.
