								Hi All
 
 Joe here... Well I am in the research stage for buying a car, truck, van or SUV in the next six months.
 
 I currently own a 2003 Ford Taurs with 130K and a Chevy HHR 150K.. I must admit both vehicles have been good to me and no major mechanic issues..... I love the HHR due to getting 30-32 MPG on the hwy, however I do must  power and comfort while on the road. The ford Taurs  (V-6) we use as a work car..to and from and back up if needed to travel...  I have been thinking of my wants and needs...
 
 want- Like to have a vehicle that can pull a trailer as I like to buy a TT in the future....I do need to think of additional cost such as maintenance, fuel  and insurance fees if I want the toys..
 
 Needs- I need a dependable vehicle to travel with as I like to be on the road. I travel from Colorado to New York every other year and vacation is usually traveling by car. 
 
 Here are my vehicles of interest:
 
 1) Kia Sodona ( Van) has tow, room, $ 16,000   Hwy MPG- 25 MPG  50K 
 2) Kia Sorrento- SUV- Tow,  ( notice used ones with high mileage are pricey)  HWY MPG 22 MPG
 3) Ford Crown Vic- I found one 2011 with low miles 25K @ 13,990 and another 59K and 11,500
 
 For those that own Crown Vics- How do you like them, Maintenance issues, Etc 
 
 Any advice would be appreciated							 |
