Car recommendations??

We are tired of pouring money into our car!!! We have driven it for over 130K miles which is impressive, but it's paying the price now. Or rather, we are! So, all my closet readers! Tell us what cars you've had good and bad experiences with! We think we may need to be acting on this soon so any input is welcome!

We have been contemplating a mini-van but that seems extreme considering we're not even pregnant with our second kid yet. Besides the fact that the other car isn't far behind the Subaru in it's journey toward totaling! My Mom has recommended her Honda Accord and so far, it's winning in all the reviews on used/new family sedans but the Toyota Camry is up there too. We always thought we'd get another Subaru and maybe a Forester or Outback but the quick decline of our current Subaru is making us rethink that!

What do you think????

We're a Honda family -- Baird has a 12 year old Accord that's running like a champ, Kate has a 4 year old civic, and my parents both bought Honda Pilots that they LOVE. The CR-V is supposed to get great gas mileage if you're looking for room to grow with the family, and the Accord is roomy too. Honda is well known for having affordable parts and very few problems. Good luck, I love your blog!

We are a Honda family too. Paul drives my 97 civic that my parents bought brand new and still runs great. And we love our Pilot too. It's a great family car with room for 8 if you need. Go test drive one and you'll be sold. Good Luck!

If we could afford a Honda or Toyota, we would get one in a heartbeat! However, as you know, we absolutely love our Kia Rio! It's got amazing fuel mileage, and we've never had any maintenance problems.
