ELI5: Where did all the minivans go?

Minivans were all the rage in 2006. They had decent gas mileage and could perfectly hold a family with a pack of kids.

Now manufacturers hardly produce minivans and more are pushing larger, gas-hungry suburbans like the Ford Flex. What gives?

Edit: I forgot a word.

People are buying crossovers more these days, so that's what manufacturers are making and selling. It's not so much push from the manufacturers as it is pull from consumers.

But there are still good minivans out there. Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna are the gold standards, and still sell well.
