What to buy!?

I don’t have a way to transfer my kayak currently. The only car I have is a big 2016 Ford transit for work. The wife is prego (4month) and I don’t have a way to transfer the baby either.

I’m thinking of buying a personal car. Any idea on what’s good best for the kayak and also just a good all around maybe suv.

Someone told me to buy a 4Runner.

What are ur guys thoughts?

Whatever car the wife likes, then put Yakima racks on top of it... Happy Wife, Happy "I get to go yakfishing!"
I think that is the old saying 

Are you talking new or used?
Parts for used American SUVs are much cheaper than their foreign counterparts.
Something to consider when buying used.

Get a trailer then you can use almost anything to haul your stuff around and have more space in the car/truck/van for wife’s and kids
And more fishing stuff

Without throwing your back out

I drive a 2004 CRV with almost 250k miles on it, and I constantly abuse it. It's the best car I've ever owned, by a longshot. But, the wife has a 2013 CRV and it ain't half as good. So if you're going to buy new, I don't know what to recommend...

This.  Get a dependable car, unless your wife likes fishing on a yak, you will find it that most of the use is not for yak fishing.  As far as brand, for a used one,  a Honda or Toyota is mostly are the way to go.  Toyota SUVs are known for long lasting. 

I think a well-checked 4runner is a good choice.  I have a sedan and partial to Honda/Acura brand, so don't take my word for it.
