my short list came down to CRV, Liberty, Vue and I went with Vue. much 'nicer" road manners. depends on what you want to do with it.

I really appreciate all the replys.
When we were in Hawaii, we rented a Tracker while we were there.
I was thinking, if I could find one,that it would suffice for our purpose.
Time to go shopping.

How about a Smart Car at 1600 LBS. Blue OX makes a tow plate for it and can tow 4 down in netural. Cheap at 11,000 for a tow car and 2 full size adults fit in it. Don't have to get on your knees to get in and out.
I like my CRV for now.

there's something about a smart car that reminds me of instant death if it is involved in a fender bender.

The wife wants a Pontiac Vibe... I think I've seen people pulling those... but, I don't see it mentioned here. Anyone?
