Something along the lines of a 4 door truck (Mitsu Raider 4x4 quad cab...it's a Dakota with beefier sheet metal), smallish SUV/raised up wagon (2nd Gen CRV EX-L, Highlander, Rav4, Murano or CX-7) or a wagon (there are only 2 correct answers and that is WRX or Legacy GT).
I need more room for the kid, our stuff and the dog. Plus I never seem to have enough room for hauling anything anymore. Needs to seat 5, prolly have leather, needs to have 4 wheel disc brakes, AWD or 4x4, alot of stowage and get decent enough mileage on the highway. Off road excursions would be fun too so no Pilot or Ridgelines. Unless I find one on a super clearance deal, FJ or Wrangler Unlimited.

My next car will be something bigger... I was originally thinking that I'd like to get a C-SRT but now I'm thinking a newer F-150 might be more practical.

Why not a Ford Lightning or SRT10 Ram? Used those cost 20k-ish

The Lightning is practical if you are looking for a truck that can haul the mail and haul ass.

Either an S-10 or an older Dart, depends on money and when I get a garage.
Either way, it's gonna lift the front tires. Unfortunately, for cost's sake, it's probably gonna have an auto.

Yeah, right. I don't want to mortgage my house to buy a trans. You can buy a TH350 for $20 and a bag of potato chips.

Next car? Just bought a 97 Grand Cherokee as a winter baby hauler for $650 but I'm hoping in a year or two we'll upgrade to a new Rav4. The Neon will always be there though, she's not getting traded off anytime soon.

IIRC They are only $4000 or $5000.
By the time you get a nice auto you are looking at $2000+. Just don't over power it. There is no such thing as overpowering a lenco

We'll see. Every time I take her out to test drive a car like the ISF, she finds some lame ass reason she doesn't like it. She passed up an IS350, an M3, an Audi RS4, a Spec B Legacy, an EVO, and a Sky Redline for the Charger.......
Shes weird.

She passed on an M3? Really?!?!? That's pretty much the perfect car for every reason [/caranddrivereditors]
I could find faults in all of those posted cars but I find a WHOLE LOT more in the Charger. They are really not that nice of cars but they are cheap and RWD and nice size. That's about it. The Legacy Spec B would be hard to leave behind on the lot.
