If you could stand to drive something else, virtually anything else would do better. Even a full-boat Impala would get better mileage. When you need to move furniture, rent a small trailer and tow it.

If you don't ever carry more than 5 people, go smaller yet with a Malibu. Power enough, I drove one from TN to MA and was ridiculously comfortable, and the trunk space was like a Las Vegas magic act. You can still tow a couple of sofas and a fridge behind one, too.

And that's only if you've got your heart set on GM. Maybe an Escape would be more to your liking?
