Finding a Car for Mom!
So my mom is on the hunt for a new car and she's got her heart set on a used Jeep Liberty (I shot a flare in the air to rescue me when she told me!). Not that the Jeep Liberty is a bad vehicle, but from a fuel point of view she could do much better in that SUV class. Unfortunately, there's no chance she's going to do much over EPA and she has no intention of learning (I tried...no chance!). My top secret mission is to talk her into a similar size used SUV with lower fuel consumption, better mileage, etc, etc, etc. without her knowing it!
She's driving an old, rusty, oil leaking, Chevy Tracker right now so just about any suggestions are an upgrade from what she has now. I'm looking for ideas to pitch to her that would be better from an eco viewpoint. A few requirements:
1. Has to be used, mid-compact SUV
2. Has to be manual 4wd or awd
Thanks for the help...look forward to the suggestions!
