my mom currently has a 2002 Chevy Blazer 2 door. putting gas in this thing is rediculous. she likes the fact thats its 4 wheel drive, but that bennifit is far outweighed by the fact that it drinks so much gas. SO, she wants to trade it in. i think she owes around 7 grand and doest want a newer car thats gonna cost more than 12-14 grand and nothing older than an 02 or 03. she was talking about getting a Saturn Vue, but im not having that for obvious reasons. she likes the size of the blazer, but would like something thats 4 door. to her, a car is something to get from point a to point b, but like s asomewhat comfortable interior. so far, this is what i’ve come up with (no clue on the prices though)

Subaru Outback wagon  
Mazda 6 wagon
