If you can get past the uncool image of a minivan, I highly recommend it. DH and I just got a Nissan Quest and love it. The toyota Sienna and Honda Odyssey are also worth checking out, the Quest has the most unique styling. We got it only because of our bikes, we're 25 and don't plan on having children for at least 4 years. Yep, we're personally trying to break the soccer mom image. It is great for bikes though. Many of the SUVs will fit two bikes if you take the front wheel off. Surprisingly many of the smaller-medium SUV couldn't fit two bikes w/o taking the front wheel off. We didn't want to take the wheels off, so we opted for the van for the gas mileage.
Here is a pic of our van loaded up with two bikes and our equipment. There is plenty of room left:
