Moving to Colorado, which cars would you suggest for the midwest?

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

I am moving to Colorado. I am looking for a car that is reasonably priced, maintenance is not too expensive, handles snow and mountains well, is comfortable and hardly any maintenance required.

Thank you!

All tips and suggestions are welcome.

Wouldn't that be the Mountain West?

Colorado is not the Midwest. The Midwest is Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Missouri. ... Colorado is considered part of the Southwest, joining Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada.

Get a Subaru

Colorado is usually referred to as the "mountain West." And you should get a Subaru.

Agree with Subaru. Anything AWD will do. Tires are the most important thing for winter driving. Slow down and give plenty of space. Maybe take a winter driving class when you get out there.

CO and NV are not the SW. Las Vegas might be, but not the rest of the state.

Subaru. I’m partial to the Outback, but any of them will do.

Look for a car with a turbocharger — they don’t lose as much power at high altitude.

Another vote for Subaru. I have a Forester and I love it.

Jeep wrangler or Jeep renegade.

Agree with Colorado not being in the Midwest and also with Subaru recommendation, especially Forester.

OP here, thank you all. I’m not really a fan of Subaru, are there any other brands anyone would recommend?

I think the reason people are recommending Subaru is that it checks all of your boxes. This is based on their/our experience with mountain terrain and car ownership.

What kinds of cars do you usually like?
