We have been using minivan for the longest time. We started with Chevrolet, Toyota and Honda. We have had back to back using Honda Odysseys totalling for 8 years now. It served very well with no trouble at all. I am very impressed with the quality of those Hondas.
However, the current Odyssey is with us for 5 years and has less than 20,000 miles. That means we are not using the minivan like we used to. So, I am now hoping around for new vehicle fore replacement.
I came across of small minivan called Ford Transit Connect. It is much smaller and cheaper than minivans from Honda, Toyota or Chrysler. As a matter of fact, it is a passenger version of work van.
I don't see any competing vehicle except NISSAN NV200 ... but is is a cargo van and passenger version is a taxi.
When we present OpinionStand to business owners, they do often confuse customers' opinion with survey. Opinion stand is lear what customers are feeling about the experience by pressing one of the faces. It is simple and quick.
But many business owners feel that is not enough. They do want their customers to tell you what they like and do not like about business. If you are a business owner and if you do not know what is good or bad about your business, you need more than a survey.
OpinionStand is not designed to help you pinpoint the problem. It I sgesign to provide you with guideline, direction. If you know when over 10% of customers are not happy, you need to do something. This is a perfect tool for that.
I went to a pool this morning about one hour earlier ... I saw so many people swimming ... I am impressed. I had to wait 30 minuets for the pool to clear.

This place is nice.
I will take my staff there someday.
Right after 9:00am, it took almost one hour to travel 15 miles from Seatac Airpot to my office. Traffic is bad and light rail is not going t provide relief. It is good alternative, but it will not replace cars.
I am letting younger / smarter people take over R&D.
I am confident they can do things better and faster.
I love this team.
I had my brunch at Bellevue Hilton this morning.
Relaxing Sunday.
