I posted a pic of this in the "1 million" thread but thought it deserved its own.

A Canadian made it to shuttle his family. Although fuel economy is reduced by the increased weight, it still gets 43 mpg city and 50 mpg on longer trips. When the driver is alone, he has achieved as high as 56 mpg, so until a hybrid minivan or larger hybrid station wagon hits the market, this seems to me a creative alternative.
