car shopping

so i thought it would be awhile yet before i succumbed but it looks like the upgrade to a family friendlier vehicle is coming sooner rather than later...

i love my little focus.  maybe not as much as the celica or the jeep, but it is a very practical and dependable little car that's been pretty good to me the past three years.  during the wildfires a couple of years ago, i fit 2 adults, OB and "important possessions" into the car and it worked but now i also have to consider Saraya, Lani, and all of the things that come with a baby and 2 dogs.  so, the focus won't cut it.  and aside from emergency escapes, there's also family trips to the beach and the country to consider.  i can't imagine a minivan right now so i think an suv is the next logical step.

so the question is, which suv?  i am a little partial to toyotas and fords.  the rav 4 looks great with seating up to 7 without being a monstrous vehicle.  and the escape has a lot of promising features too.  i guess there will be some price comparison and test driving going on.  i'll keep you updated!

in the meantime, feel free to make suggestions about these 2 or any other suvs.
