LIVINGINMINIVANSA2008-03-03-1204562983.jpgTwo Rochester-area families are celebrating in style because they each won a brand new minivan. On Sunday, both families faced off in a reality show at the Rochester International Auto Show.


Their task was to spend 48 hours with their families inside a minivan. The group that can endure surviving in a minivan for two whole days gets to drive home with a Chrysler Town and Country minivan or a Dodge Grand Caravan. One contestant said she really needed a new van and didn't mind being cooped up inside of one with her family.


"We know our family well enough.  We know how to deal with each other pretty well.  It wasn't that bad for us,” says Brandy Collette one of the contest winners.


Both families were tested on their skills by multiple challenges, sing the minivan's special features including swivel n' go and stow and go seating.
