[quote=Anonymous]Ideally we'd pay $25K for a middle of the road small SUV (like a Subaru Outback, but we already have one and don't want to buy another one of those).  The most we'd want to pay is maybe $28,000.  Here are our requirements:

AWD -- this is a MUST because of where our families live
Moon roof (my DH is so weird)
Auto seats (most cars have this now, right?)
Roomy backseat for one rear facing + one forward facing car seat
Roomy cargo area for strollers, suitcases, sports stuff, etc. since we travel to visit family a few times a year and our older child is just starting sports
Infrequent and inexpensive maintenance (so...no Volvo or Volkswagen!)
Takes regular gas (not premium)

We don't need fancy like leather seats, safety sensors, etc. - we'd probably end up getting the mid-level of something (I think there's usually 3 versions of a car, right? low/med/high-end?)

What do you recommend and like?  This is going to be DH's car, and he refuses to get a minivan, so don't recommend one of those, please!!  And he won't take my 5 year old SUV and let ME get a minivan, LOL![/quote]
