My wife needs new car. The deal is done and it is being picked up Friday. It is a 2015 because it is for her business and being able to depreciate it over a few years along with practically free financing made that a no-brainer.

Her requirements:

  • Priced mid-30s
  • Seat 4 adults comfortably
  • Wagon or large hatch for camera equipment and lighting (or 2 dogs)
  • AWD and good winter traction
  • good fuel economy
  • leather heated seats, and generally well appointed cabin
  • automatic trans
  • built in BT for conference calls
  • climate control

Can you guess what she picked to replace a 2005 BMW 325XiT w/ sport suspension?

I'll also say Edge. I figure the Exploder is too big, the Cherokee is too Jeep and the others are just wrong.

My first thought, it looks like an Ithaca car. Oh, it has NY plates. Oh, it has 2 Ithaca stickers. I have seen that car around town

Edit- make that 5 Ithaca stickers.

So you're saying GPS might be from NY State?

Don't feel bad, at least 25% of the Subarus around here are covered with bumper stickers.

We do not do bumper stickers in my garage unless required by a series sponsor.

I thought they started the application of stickers at the dealer.

Isn't the COEXIST sticker a dealer applied free option?

Seriously, she should enjoy it. They are pretty capable in a lot of ways.
