New DD for the old lady and babies- $15k, she has 4 top runners.

Not sure if I ever updated this but we ended up with a 2012 Honda CRV, with full time AWD we are seeing a mixed mpg of 23-25mpg.

Love it, comfy, plenty of room for all of us, good amount of cargo room, bluetooth, back up camera, k series motor is plenty strong to merge onto the highway without getting into the go pedal too much.

Just need to get the front windows and sunroof tinted, then some remote start and alarm action and it will be complete.
