The Kia Sorento is a pretty nice riding and handling crossover with decent room and cargo room for fairly little money. When my current beater car dies I will probably be replacing it with one of those.

I'm disappointed in you....


Sherrie - go for a Subaru. You have the option of the Outback, Forester, or Tribeca.

Outback


Forester


Tribeca

I love our Subaru but I also know that they've gotten damn expensive over the past few years. I figure if you're spending money on something that the kids are just gonna eff up you may as well not put as much at risk

I wouldn't know about that... I stole mine!

At least I feel like I did. I got mine 1 year after Erik, higher sticker price and I owe about the same as him for payoff. Which, to me, isn't much.

My parents just bought a Sorrento. I hated the idea of a Kia, but theirs is fantastic. AWD, great seating and as much power as this vehicle needs. I did 3600 highway and city miles and the only complaint is stiff seats over 500 miles or more. We did the Michigan to Virginia trip twice in the course of a week with 3 adults 2 tweens and their junk...no complaints and we drove through the east coast blizzard and it handled it no problem.
