Hi all,
I am somewhat reluctantly starting to look at small SUVs for next vehicle - I would prefer a station wagon, but I often take my dear old dad out and about, and he is increasingly having difficulty contorting himself into standard-height car seats. I am thus thinking about joining the yuppie cute-ute brigade.
I'd like something small-ish, easy to park, comfortable, reasonably nimble, with easily accessible front seats, that doesn't drive like a truck. Thoughts, experiences and suggestions welcome.
Cheers,
H
PS One definite criterion - I need to be able to fit 8' lumber inside - this doesn't happen often, but several times a year, I cart home a half-dozen 2 x 4s or similar. Doesn't matter if it is resting on the dash, so long as it will fit.
