Question Possible new family car?
Well, Gas prices are going up...and I'm thinking about dumping the Expedition in favor of a family car that gets good gas mileage.

Here is what I have found that I like.

Thoughts?

I never have and never will lease...

It's a 4cyl.

Just need a good family car (ie: good gas mileage)

Good car with a Good Resale (incase gas prices go down and you want ur Gas Guzzler back). Its also very reliable. Good choice!

I'd take an Accord over a Camry, not because i'm a "Honda Guy", but because i think they look better.
