So we're looking for a new set of wheels (4) and I'm not overly particular but don't want a headache.
One thing that has thrown me is that for example a base Chevy Traverse comes with a 310 HP V-6 but as you move to the higher level models it drops to an L-4 @ 257 HP. What am I missing?
A Dodge Caravan would do the job (The Swiss Army Knife of Transportation) but I'm past suddenly needing a sheet of drywall.
I've never needed AWD or 4WD and don't use most of the electronics on a base model. I doubt I'll ever tow anything but a hitch mount bike rack might be in the cards.
My greatest concern is that I will get fed up looking and just grab something. A friend did that when he was house hunting. He got so fed up looking he told his wife that if there was nothing wrong with the next place just buy it. They did and while there was nothing wrong with it there was nothing right with it. My view of the Caravan.
I like the looks of the Kia Sorento but don't know much about the brand.
It will be replacing a Chev Uplander that in spite of some model negativity has served well for 11 years. It needs a new tranny and struts so putting $7K + into it doesn't make sense.
Thoughts?
