I'm considering getting one of these as my next ride. Actually, my wifes. I prioritize quiet interior noise levels above most else.
Required:
I require 4 wheel drive. I'd like to keep the cost in the low $30s. Low road noise.
Wants:
I'd like to get leather seats. Both front and back seats need to be comfortable for adults. I want my 6' frame to be happy in the back seat! This will be our road trip vehicle for VERY long drives. High way fuel economy close to 30 mpg. And if a make/model is known to have maintenance issues, I do not want it.
Toyota RAV4 <= I've heard that these are crap
Honda CR-V <= heard that these are noisy
Ford Escape <== maybe
Nissan Rogue <== currently dislike
Chevrolet Equinox <== currently like this one
Jeep Cherokee <== currently like this one
Subaru Forester <== maybe
Mazda cx5
If people could steer me properly, that would be great. If I missed some makes/models that I should consider let me know. Let's see where this goes.
