Im getting me an SUV. And since the woman HATES driving big cars, I have to get me a small SUV. Im now looking for either a Honda CRV or a Suzuki Grand Vitara. Or maybe, even a KIA Sportage. ;) Hows that treating you, PP??

Oh yeah, hows the new Subaru Babs?? Must be nice having something with AWD. :thumbsup:

CRV's are nice...if you're a girl. Go with the Ford Escape, I like those. Take a gander (http://www.fordvehicles.com/suvs/escape/index.asp?bhcp=1)

I know its not really a man's car, but I really dont have a choice. I have to pay for my parking, where I live, its a blessing to even have a space. The space is only so big, I have borrowed my brothers Honda Passport before, and it really took up alot of room. And the Passport isnt that big. So I dont know. :notme:

Honestly Bob, all the small SUV's, Kia, Rav, CRV, etc, are pretty much the same. Go for the best deal. They all do the same thing.

I went with Kia for ONE reason, No one wants to steal it, the parts are worthless.

I park at a subway station everyday, lots of theft. I want my car there when I get back every night.

So, I'd avoid the Honda. It WILL get effed with.:cool:

Bob, my Outback is awesome! I love that car. It handles great in the snow, and I really like having the AWD. And I am in love with the heated seats. :)

True, very true.

However, one thing about the Suzuki Grand Vitara is thats its a V6. No other mini SUV has that. So I may try to get my paws on one of those. We'll see, I probably wont get anything til I get back from Vancouver though.

Boston is a hotbed of car theft. The Subway station I park in gets about 2 cars stolen a week. Before I bought my Kia, I had an OLD as DIRT Honda Accord, 1989.

It was broken into 4 times in a year.:(

My Kia hasn't been touched.:cool:

Man, that really sucks. Just goes to show everyone that we still have a bunch of dumbass morons who will do anything and everything to crap that ain't their's. :( I'd love to live in Boston someday, but not with the idea of having my car jacked when I'm sleeping or at work. That's simply crazy. I don't have to worry about that stuff up here. I don't even lock my truck doors . . . :eek:
