we looked at SUV's and even AWD cars like an Evo or WRX but she just doesn't like 'em...


she liked the evo but i can't find one within 500 miles...

only SUV she has told me she likes is the Ford Edge, but I havn't been able to find one within the price range with decent mileage.

I think she's leaning more twords a Jeep because that's what I drove around in, in highschool years ago and she misses it. Besides that they're small, compact and do well in pretty much any terrain. She certainly won't be taking it to the Rubicon or Fordyce but we'll camp/hunt with it.. including her drive to Grass Valley in case it snow's.

I'd love to have that Rubicon but other few things just worry me... mileage is a biggie when it comes to reliability. I don't want to buy it and immediatly start having to replace stuff.
R.I.P to my Papa, I miss you pops......
