The Heffley Family's Minivan

This is a minivan owned by Greg's Family.

The Trade
At first, Frank had got a sports car, but Susan disagreed with the sports car and was disappointed that Frank bought a car without her permission. Frank said that this was the car he always wanted, so Susan let him keep it. Greg got the best student of the week award from school. Greg wanted Frank to put it on the car, but Frank said it would mess his car up, so Greg gave it to Manny so he could put it on his wagon or something, but Manny put it on the door of the sports car instead. Greg ripped the bumper sticker off with some steel wool, but the paint scraped off and Susan told Frank that the Sports car was not good, so she made Frank exchange it for a minivan.

Family Roadtrip
In The Long Haul they take it for a family roadtrip.Greg is forced to sit  at the back seat with lots of stuff there and since the windows there couldn't open he would get no ventilation.Later, due to Rodrick's chewing gum, the sunroof stops working, Frank uses a chewing gum to make his own sunroof, but due to rain it gets destroyed.Later the mechanic tells them, that they would need to have the heater at full temperature so that the engine doesn't overheat.They later escaping from the Beardos, forget to turn it on and the engine overheats and they later run over a bottle and puntcures a tire.Later some Spanish guys give them a lift.It is not know what happens to the minivan later.
