My wife and I are once again searching for another vehicle, I drive an S4 and she has an C class Benz, both of which don't really cater to our needs as a family (2 kids).
We're looking for either an SUV or Station Wagon that we can comfortably go on a long trip in, that means GPS navigation, very roomy, entertainment in the backseat to keep the kid's quiet, and a very spacious trunk.
Preferably with good fuel economy too, I know it's hard to find these days, but I don't want to be dealing with 12 MPG.
Our budget is $50,000.
Some cars that interest us are
- Audi A6 Avant
- Porsche Cayenne
- Volkswagen Touareg
- BMW X5
- Acura MDX
any suggestion?
Thanks

Hi.......seems like you prefer foreign cars, and expensive ones too. The VW touareg is a great car, but even with the small 8, i dont think gas mileage would be good. The Porsche is cute, but kinda small. You may want to consider a mini van, i like the Toyota version myself, the Sienna. Good on gas and quite roomy too. A well equipped one is low 30's i think, and the reliability and resale is above average. SUV's dont generally get good mpg, their just too big or boxy, or even heavy. I have a Nissan Pathfinder now, great truck, love the 4wd option, but its heavy, and with the 6 cylinder, automatic, it only gets about 17 mpg, and thats a small SUV by comparison to some of today's vehicles. I know the minivan gives off the "soccer mom" image, but the Sienna will grow on you. And after a few years of comfortable driving, with lots of room for the kids and cargo, and decent gas mpg.........your wallet will be pleased..........Good Luck!!

Honda Odyssey. You can buy a new one, fully equipped, get decent gas mileage. It will last a long time and perform well. With the $15,000 in savings (it may cost you $35,000 with taxes) you could save for the kids' tuition.
The vehicles you listed are all luxury toys.
