It's been a while since I've considered buying a little car just to go from point A to point B but I find myself needing one. I have a few requirements.

1. It must be capable of at least 80 on the highway without being right at redline.

2. It must get at least 30 MPG on the highway.

3. It must have enough room for 4 people or 2 people and 2 big dogs.

4. It must be competent in bad weather and snow.

5. It must be cheap because I plan to pile miles on it and replace it in a couple years.

6. I'd preffer sometheing newer to keep maintenance costs down.

Any suggestions?

That's why I bought my Malibu... it's not a bad car to drive and is really comfortable. It can use some more power, but isn't painfully slow. Mine is a '00 but doesn't get 28 to 30 mpg. Typically it will go 240 miles of mixed highway and city driving and use 10 to 11 gallons.

Good luck with it. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif)
