After $1,100 in repairs in the last three weeks, I think it's time to bump our Subaru Outback down to second car status. I'd prefer to buy used (2-3 years old), but I'm easily distracted by shiny new things.
Which ones are worth looking at?
Currently, a Mazda CX-7 or CX-9 top my list. I'm open to a Hyundai/Kia if they have good safety ratings. I think dh would go for some of the GM ones.
I don't really like any of the Chrysler ones (including Jeep). I also don't care for the look of the Ford Edge, Flex and Taurus X. I don't like the Honda Crosstour or Element and I think the Pilot is out of our price range. Toyota issues aside, I think the Rav-4 backseat is ridiculous and dh will never go for the Highlander based on looks.
What does that leave? Am I missing something? Maybe Nissans?
oh, but nothing like the Nissan Cube, Scion Xb, Kia Soul... those little boxy things don't do it for me.
