Commute: 4.6 miles/10 minutes each way, 5 days a week.
Annual Mileage: 8k give or take
Back Road / Highway / B2B&City:10/30/60 im assuming this is all throughout the year not just on my commute to work
Handling / Ride Comfort: needs to be comfy, leather, heated seats, cold A/C, sunroof. Good ride that doesnt throw my ass around all over the place, but I dont wanna feel like im gonna flip over when I take a turn somewhat spirited either.
Power: has to move, don't wanna feel like im gonna die when merging into traffic or passing someone, so leaning towards a V8
Size: need something that will haul 2 dogs or survive a trip to lowes as well, so leaning towards Wagon/SUV territory
2 vs 4 doors: 4
Fuel Economy: Not to big of a deal, if we worry about MPG well take Casey's Focus
Automatic vs Manual: Automatic for a DD, im tired of a heavy clutch in stop and go traffic.
Looks: Important, cant stand an ugly car.
