A subject many of you will be lost discussing......
Family cars.
So I am looking for another car with more room as the old lady's corolla is just too small. Don't really want a big SUV or crossover. Needs to have seating for at least 5 and a good sized cargo area for the pups. Why can't anyone make decent sized wagons anymore lol.
Any thoughts?
Dodge Magnum came to mind but seen too many tranny issues.
How big are Subaru Outbacks?

New jetta wagons are decent looking IMO.
and TDI gets 55mpg that aint bad..
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

hands down if i had to get a differnet or could get a new 4dr id check out the pontiac g8's...beast power great gas milage and 4drs witha huge trunk... not the best for pups but the back seats do fold down 60-40 and are hard liner so no worries about tearing upthe backs... no wagon but just a much room...

This. My friends bought one as a daily driver. He can fit an ls1 engine in the back and that sold him. Though i really don't think his fiancee will let him do that. Originally Posted by *JamReX*

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then youll go faster period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster. the late Tom Thrash SCCA Solo E Production

Cadillac CTS wagon= Win!
My sister has one, pretty pimp and plenty of space!
In the final analysis, it was never between me and you anyway...

Honda fit! Reliability, mpg is fantastic, 5 passenger, seats fold down for tons of space, they are quick in first and second, handles incredible.
I love mine, wanted to get rid of it for a while but now that bisi is making parts for the crz (shares the engine with the fit minus the hybrid system) the aftermarket is about to blow up.(}) zoom zoom...brap brap (})

Don't think two large dogs would fit in the hatch area of a Focus or a Fit, and didn't know the G8 was a wagon......
Might have to go check out a Volvo and the Legacy doesn't look half bad.
Flex was one of the first picks but hte old lady said it was too boxy.

talk her into one then dude, you'll be hard pressed to find larger, better MPG, or more safe vehicle for the money, i cant even think of one.
Volvo's large wagon (XC60) is also a good choice, just not as much cargo area but its safety measures are intense. Originally Posted by La Flama Blanca
