Subaru Legacy. DH is tall and it's his daily driver. His seat is all the way back for leg space and we can still fit a rear facing car seat behind it. Love the car! Ours is a 2015.

Outback is comfortable with great visibility. Mine is not fully loaded and still comfortable. Newer ones have some cool technology for safer driving supposedly.

For $30K cash, he will get a fully loaded 2019 vehicle with MSRP of $35-37K.

A Forester or Outback will easily last 10 years with regular maintenance.

I will also add that a fully loaded Subaru feels more luxurious than a CR-V or RAV4 at the same price point. I recently test drove all of them and the Subaru is the best value, IMHO, while still getting 30+ MPG.

Not sure if it is still the case with Foresters, but they used to be a good fit for tall people. We had a 2014 and got rid of it because of the transmission was a CVT and that year was having lots of problems. Not sure how the new ones are doing.

Those SUV's are very small. Get a bigger one.

I'd get a legacy

Jeep!

We love our Santa Fe Sport! Can't believe it's already 4 years old... We were replacing our beloved Subaru and did a lot of comparison shopping of mid-size SUVs. We felt the Hyundai gave us the most comfortable ride and a lot of "extras" for the price.

I just bought a 2018 CRV and am happy with it aside from the fact it doesnt have a CD player. My car prior to that was a 2007 Pilot.

I would go with the CRV or maybe the RAV4.

Both brands@ are very famous for being very reliable & have the highest resell value if you decide to sell later on.

Husband needs a new car. Currently drives a 10 year old Sonata. I drive a newer minivan in good condition that we use for road trips, family outings, etc.

We are feeling sort of overwhelmed at the choices for DH. Budget is $25-$30k, cash. He is tall (6'4") and has a bum knee that he needs to be able to straighten completely from time to time. He does drive our 2 kids around a fair amount and needs a comfortable backseat for them. We are mostly looking at mid size sedans (like Sonata, Camry size) or mid size SUV's like CRV, Mazda CX5, etc. but open to any/all suggestions. We will likely buy the car brand new and keep for 10 years. Reliability/longevity is a priority. But so is driver handling and driver/passenger comfort.

Ideas, thoughts?
