Screw PH. Recommend ME/my SO a new car!

[SlowwHand]

I like Toyotas.

[Provost Harrison]

That Juke is utterly hideous.

This.

[ColdWizard]

So other than everyone thinking the Juke is ugly, which one should I pick? No one is voting.

I'm likely going to end up with the Rogue...

Overstocked = no one wants one. Do you know more than the market?

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

If you're actually planning to drive off a road, get the Forester. It's cruder than the others, but practically indestructible.

Have you considered the Subaru Legacy Outback? That's a great car.

[Asher]

You are aware of the fact that the Juke apparently shares basic tech with Renault Clio ? A french "car"

The adjustments possible in the drivers seat are also a bit reduced, so unless your SO is built like a japanese, he might have trouble.

He's 5'7.

[Asher]

At least we don't all insist upon driving cars that look like they were stolen off a carnival ride.:shrug:

To be fair, the dainty Europeans are the ones who didn't have the stones to emigrate to the wild new world. They're more inclined to drive bumper cars in well-paved, straight-lined streets than ever have a need for anything more utilitarian.

Not at all planning to go off-roading, just winter road commuting.

Haven't looked at the Outback yet. Was initially turned off by its stationwagon nature, but it's worth a closer look. Thanks.

Probably. The Juke is very hard to find and has no incentives because it's selling better than expected.

Nissan probably cannibalized its own sales since they're in the same price range.

[Zoetstofzoetje]

Volvo has the XC, and Porsche does a Cayenne.

[Asher]

Yes. I'll go buy a Cayenne. Or the $50K XC.

No it were those who were smart enough to make it in society that stayed. The crap that left you look at in the mirror every day.

[Dauphin]

Fiat Cinquecento (or Fiat 500 now).

[Main_Brain]

We're all very different people. We're not Watusi. We're not Spartans. We're Americans, with a capital 'A', huh? You know what that means? Do ya? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world. We are the wretched refuse. We're the underdog. We're mutts! Here's proof: his nose is cold! But there's no animal that's more faithful, that's more loyal, more loveable than the mutt. Who saw "Old Yeller?" Who cried when Old Yeller got shot at the end?

This.

Re: Topic: Myself I drive a RAV4 built before the Facelift. The Model now looks like an Audi :/ Lost most of its Charme
Realistic Usage 9l/100km in Summer 10/100l in Winter, yet I sense the new one is not really your Style
You may want to look into the BMW X1 which is in the same Price Range (although has few Extras included)

I really wish I could ban Europeans from this poll. Really, do you guys even see what you drive? It's embarrassing.

We drive Range Rovers...comfort, power and off-road capabilities that other so called off-roaders can only dream about.

Calgary is flat...pancake flat...and has plenty of well snow-ploughed roads...as for straight-lined streets...you been to Canada?



Note the mountains in the distance...whilst the city and its environs are flat and hey...I can spot VERY wide, straight streets with tarmac.
