from PSers! It's about that time to replace my beloved RAV4 and I'm curious about what y'all are driving right now that THRILLS you. I'll list my specific needs/wants but would certainly welcome any tales of car love even if they don't apply to my sitch.
MUST HAVES
* higher stance (so probably a small SUV like the RAV4 -- due to some ongoing BACK PROBLEMS ugh!)
* comfortable drivers seat (see above re: back - ouch!)
* AWD (we live up north and it snows 6 months out of the year)
* reliability
DESIRES
* smooth ride (yeah - the back thing again)
* decent gas mileage
* certain amount of plushness
* unique color
* navigation
* sunroof/moonroof
I super really dislike the look of the new RAV4 so that's out. Been considering 1-2 year old Acura RDXs ... or 2013 Honda CR-Vs but haven't test driven yet. Have an irrational crush on a Nissan 370z roadster but that has ZERO of my "Must Haves". Gah. Can you say "midlife crisis"?!!!
