Looking For a Car to Replace My Truck - I Need Your Inputs! Or: Talk Some Sense Into Me

[Zundfolge]

I hate to say it but a lightly used Subaru would fit the bill perfectly for you ... just make sure you plaster it in NRA and other pro-gun stickers so you don't look like a douche.

Here's a couple of examples I found on a quick Craigslist search.

That is my other car choice too. Granted, he didn't say he needed 4WD, though I doubt it would be useless in CO. So I just stayed quiet to let someone else suggest it

I based my suggestion of a Subie on this:

I like being able to get places off the beaten path without bottoming out and destroying a car. Especially when it comes to going shooting, mountain biking, hiking, or camping.

Along with his list of "requirements"

4 doors
~25mpg or better. Bonus points for 30+
Needs to be able to fit a carseat in the back
Needs to be safe
less than 60k miles... preferably less than 40k.
Nothing older than 2005 year model

And even though they've become the status symbol of the brain dead liberal they're really good cars and he's planning on spending enough to get a low mileage one.

btw, found another one http://cosprings.craigslist.org/ctd/4038393579.html

Ah, gotcha, missed that part lol. I agree, hippies drive them, but they are definitely good cars.

Hippies drive the outback, forester, and impreza rs wagon. If anyone wants a subaru that's definitely not hippy-ish, get a Legacy GT or WRX STi. I love my STi. It's a rocket ship.

Honestly they're great cars.. a bit under 'pokey' on the 4cyl versions, but if you're looking for fuel econ, that's what you're going to get. I have driven several of the 'lesbian limousines' from people at work when I had to grab things that wouldn't fit in the benz.. and honestly, I didn't mind.
