That Special Feeling

When I was a kid my family had the classic Oldsmobile Station Wagon! It had the faux wood on the sides and the backward facing seats. I loved this car and all the great memories it gave me. But even more so, I loved the cassette tape that came with it. The first song was "There is a special feel," the song goes like this: There is a special feel in an oldsmobile da, da,da,da,Born in the luxury ride it's a feeling of pride that your feeling inside!!!! In an oldsmobile!"





I need that special feeling again! I am finally going to buy my first car and I need your help. Below are my top choices and currently there is one I am leaning heavily toward but I would love to hear your choice. The perks I need in a car are: I want room to put stuff by the drivers seat for my phone and other miscellaneous things, I need room for my chocolate lab to ride and possibly put her crate in it a few times, and I commute a ways so gas is a small issue but I won't let that be my only determining factor! Pick a good one!








1. Toyota Solara
Perks: being like my mom! This is what she drives!
Downer: Outta my league!









2. Toyota Camry (This is what I drive now)
Perks: Reliable, good gas mileage
Downer: too simple









3. Toyota 4 Runner
Perks: Toyota (lasts forever), The back tailgate window rolls down
Downer: More expensive than a Pathfinder but not as much room and perks











4. Nissan Xterra in yellow
Perks: I have wanted this car as long as I can remember!
Downer: Not as much room as the other SUV's on my list






5. Nissan Pathfinder
Perks: Lots of storage room, 3rd row of seats
Downer: Hmm.... gas mileage

6. Honda CRV

Perks: Smaller SUV, better gas mileage

Downer: Smaller SUV

7. GMC Acadia

Perks: American made, Pretty

Downer: I don't know much about this car. I just saw it on the road the other day and I like it!

Thanks for your help!
