When I Shopped

This is a list of other vehicles that I considered and researched when I shopped for my new car:
 
bullet

Nissan Xterra:
I loved the outside look, but the interior left something to be desired. Sunroof only, no moonroof (tilt, no slide). Plus sunroof opening was covered by the roof basket. Expensive.
 

bullet

Chevy Tracker V6:
Too small inside and a little goofy looking. Cheap interior
 

bullet

Pre- 02 Honda CRV:
Also too small inside and slow
 

bullet

02 Honda CRV:
Inside and out, just plain ugly... plus I drove a Honda for the last 10 years and wanted something different.
 

bullet

Toyota Rav4:
Just plain Blaa.
 

bullet

Toyota Highlander:
Blaa and expensive
 

bullet

Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe:
Hated the dash. Slow with AWD
 

bullet

Jeep Liberty:
No incentives.  First year of production.  Roll over controversy.  I would be very tempted to take it off road.  I would probably get it stuck in the mud in the Pine Barrens of NJ.
 

bullet

Chevy Blazer:
Old design.  Didn't like the dash.  Got more with the Escape for the same price.
 

bullet

Hyundai Santa Fe:
Local dealer wanted $2000 above sticker.  I'm not about to buy any car for more than sticker.
 

bullet

Subaru WRX Hatchback:
Weeee. Probably would have one now if I could have gotten a sunroof.
 

bullet

Mazda Tribute:
Close second to the Escape, but the dealerships were too far away.
