I really think I need to part with my beloved Freestyle. I love the car, everything about it, but I need to lower my car payment. Plus, Ford's warranty sucks and I'm only covered to 3 years/36K miles. I have had the car for a year and half and I have 16K miles on it right now.
I don't want a car. I just don't like driving cars. I hate when I have to drive DH's Fusion. So no car suggestions, please. I can't bring myself to go the minivan route, I've tried. I've test driven them, I'll admit I like the way they drive, but I can't do it. Then I started noticing the Chevy Uplander. Yes, I know it's a minivan, but I don't cringe when I look at it.
I don't like the other crossovers that are similar to the Freestyle, so they're out.
I don't really want to go back to an SUV with gas prices they way they are. All of my driving is local stop and go and I can't afford the $70 to fill the tank every week. I also can't stand the smaller SUVs like the Escape.
It's got to have a 3rd row as well.
So, does anyone know anything about the Uplander? Good points, bad points?
