    Get a scooter for commuting. Tough to beat 80-100 mpg.

    A Subie will get you most places a nonlifted Silverado will, and get 25 MPG reliably. Very few things will go wrong before 100K if that soon.

    I recommend a Forester over an Outback for the headroom; a WRX is good for accelerating quickly and cornering on a flat surface.

    Not ALL Subie owners are braindead libs, some of us just like the utility of a Subaru.

    Have we mentioned a Subaru yet?

    I think this is what you are looking for. Great gas mileage and looks like a 4x4..

    (but in all seriousness, Subies are really good cars ... its the one thing Liberals are right about ... you know, a broken clock being right twice a day and all)
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    "Everything the State says is a lie, and everything it has it has stolen.
    -Friedrich Nietzsche

    In all seriousness. My wife has a 2011 Highlander -- and I fricking love that car. Drives great. SUPER comfortable. Great on gas. I have told her a couple of times that I'd trade my truck for her Highlander.

    Chrysler/Dodge Minivan. The only downside is lack of ground clearance. Means you have to ride or walk the bike a bit farther.
    When your kids are older with friends with bikes and your hauling more crap the van is really nice.
    I like sex, drugs and automatic weapons. That's why i'm a dues paying member of the Libertarian party. Struggling to keep the government away from messing with the above.

    I daily drive my '01 GMC Sierra and love it for many of the reasons you cited. If my gas cost was as high as yours, I'd get a small car.

    Subie, I love my 2012 outback, 41k on it now and still the smoothest riding car I've ever own, avg's 26's to 28's MPG. 9inch clearance is a big plus coming from ranges / fields
