Something you would do full road trips in with 4 people and stuff. Something that you can drive without worrying about whatever road you are on. Something you can also have fun driving.

Can be used but less than 30k miles
Can be 40k

Must be fun and be a car.

Bonus points for under 30k cost.

I just feel like this checks a lot of our boxes and am curious what you would pick.

I’ll start it out with this.

'Car'? Meaning 'not an SUV'?

Fun is subjective. So what do you mean by fun?

Stinger GT would definitely be very high on the list if not at the top. Maybe a VW GTI or a Alfa Romeo Giulia if I want to go that route. And of course a Volvo V60

It is. I just mean a Honda Accord isn’t fun. It’s nice, dependable, options....but it doesn’t give me a smile when I want to hop on the interstate at 150mph (example, not rule)

Not suv. There are some new fun SUV’s out there. The explorer st, the hellcat grand Cherokee, and some others...but I just think car is a good starting point.

Accord 2.0T is actually quite fun to drive :d ontknow:

I'm with Frode though a Stinger GT lightly used is probably the best all around option. Everything else could bankrupt you after the warranty runs out.

Hell most Subaru would tick those boxes, but again depends on what you want to do for fun.

This. Go anywhere.

You know, sometimes I forget Honda did add a turbo to their line ups. Maybe I’ve over looked them.

Add 2 more doors and make it a family wagon.

It comes down to this. I look at it like this. If I need to run into town, even though I LOVE our new Tahoe, I’m not taking it. Im taking the escape. Nimble fun but still not as fun as a car but damn more fun than a 4 door jeep. That’s just gross.


Coop

yeah I dont see a jeep as any fun at all unless you are off roading otherwise they are kinda miserable to drive.

Add in the price, the horrible ride, the gas mileage, the reliability....they look great. That’s it. Not a fun car.


Coop

Again, fun is subjective. I had fun daily driving my wrangler with the top and doors off.

Only reason I got rid of it was reliability issues.

Family car....road trips....none of which fit this. A raptor would be a better option than a jeep. lol.


Coop

Well I think we have the answer then... Raptor!

4 door jeep would. Don't get me wrong, I will never recommend a jeep to anyone I like.
