Honda had a great idea this year: putting a shop vac into its Odyssey minivan. That way, parents will be able to get rid of the crushed snack crumbs covering most minivan floors.
More than a decade ago, Chevrolet did something similar with the Warner Brothers Venture. The bowtie brand pandered to parents by slapping a “WB” badge on the car and offering a fold-down TV to keep the kids quiet.
Chevrolet didn’t stop there, though. The options list also included a LEGO playseat.
