which to buy? CRV, RAV, Vitara, Forester, Santa Fe, etc. Need input.
I am looking at 2004 vehicles in this price range. Previously I had a
Jeep Cherokee, which I quite liked. Although I did not use the 4WD often, having the lever there was like a warm security blanket. I liked being able to open the rear hatch door and pile all sorts of sh1t in there. I am looking at some of the 4WD/AWD vehicles. Most of the driving will be on-road but I want to be able to go up a questionable road when necessary. My requirements a 1. Be able to go where a 2WD can't (unplowed roads, seasonal use roads, etc. but I won't be climbing mountains with it, I've got hiking boots for that). 2. Confortable road driving. Able to cruise at around 80-85mph. 3. Adequate cargo room. 4. Good availability of International support/parts/service as I will be taking the vehicle to unknown parts of the world. 5. Good reliability. If you were going on a road trip with two mountain bikes and luggage INSIDE the vehicle, which would you choose? Thanks for any responses! JJ |

Then consider buying a Chevrolet Tahoe or Suburban. Don't ever think of buying one of those playmobiles you mentioned above. I drive a Chevrolet Trailblazer, but that's too small for putting 2 bikes inside the car plus the baggage. Andreas |
