Soon to be 100+ pound Bulldog and a Boxer mix.

Putting the seat down takes away the need for more than 2 seats.

 

Mazda 5 is worth a look. I recently sold mine to get out from a car payment due to a new baby. Certainly isn't the fastest thing but it handles well, is pretty spunky around town, gets pretty good gas mileage, and swallows a crap ton of cargo with all the seats folded down (plus easy to get crap in and out with the sliding doors).

 

Good call. Forgot about the Mazdas. I kinda like the CX7.

 

CX7 is another good one. I think you can get it with or without the turbo motor now.

 

Chevy Chase anyone???




Graves I can picture you here with your family. just messing with ya.

 

It needs more middle fingers being flown and a dog chewing on the bumper. Yes my dog tries to eat cars now.

 

Go test drive a Mazda CX-7 my wife has had one since 08' and I love it and I'm not really a person who like's SUV's....Also, check out the Dodge Caliber 2.4L she had one of those and I was really impressed by that aswell...

 

The caliber has brake issues. Almost as bad as what happened to Toyota with the gas pedal issue. I would not recommend a Caliber to anyone.

Edit: break = brake

 

You gotta let her know function>form. The flex seems like a pretty nice ride out of what's available.

 

brake issues? I work as a Mopar tech and ive never heard of any issues other than a very few had their own gas pedal recall and that was like a year ago and we havent seen any come in in a long time nor were that many that had be fixed.
