MSRP: $41,660 - $43,250 | MPG: 28 Hwy, 32 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
I love the comfort and the features and how well it fit my kids and all our stuff, but when it came time to let it go, it was the drive that I really hated to see leave.
MSRP: $31,305 - $34,935 | MPG: 26 Hwy, 21 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
The 2009 Lexus IS 250 isn’t your average family sedan. Lexus says it can fit five occupants, but my family of four would respectfully disagree with that number. However, I think I’ve found its place in a mom’s life: The IS 250 is the car you get once you become an empty-nester.
MSRP: $37,200 - $37,200 | MPG: 23 Hwy, 18 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
The Q5 broke my heart and left me crying on the side of the road. Not through any fault of its own, only because the people at Audi are mean and they wouldn’t let me keep it.
MSRP: $40,990 - $47,140 | MPG: 20 Hwy, 15 City
Details: 7 Seats, 3 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
I’ve always had a crush on the Acura MDX, so getting a week to spend in it was kind of exciting. Of course, no fantasy turns out perfectly, and the reality of the MDX was somewhat less than perfect – as reality often is.
MSRP: $31,000 - $48,800 | MPG: 25 Hwy, 23 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
My family believed the A4 was truly magical, and maybe we’re onto something. It’s sporty and powerful for the performance driver, yet safe and practical for the day-to-day driver.
MSRP: $27,100 - $39,800 | MPG: 25 Hwy, 21 City
Details: 4 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
From the outside, the CC is incredibly smooth-looking — think stilettos and a black mini dress. This car turns heads and even gets people to point; that’s something I usually discourage my kids from doing, but in this case I told them it was a compliment.
MSRP: $15,520 - $18,265 | MPG: 33 Hwy, 24 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
Driving the front-wheel-drive 2009 Ford Focus SES was better than I expected; it felt tight and well-constructed. The manual transmission let me have more power when I wanted it, but it’s a four-cylinder, so it’s not over-the-top speed-wise.
MSRP: $53,470 - $53,470 | MPG: 24 Hwy, 17 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
The GS 460 is an older man’s attempt to recapture an imagined youth, and this mama felt out of place just sitting in it.
MSRP: $47,500 - $56,200 | MPG: 19 Hwy, 19 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
The 2009 BMW X5 xDrive35d and I ended our two weeks together with mixed feelings toward each other. Put another way, I developed what can only be described as a love/hate relationship with this car.
MSRP: $21,500 - $27,810 | MPG: 26 Hwy, 22 City
Details: 5 Seats, 2 Rows, 2 Latch Connectors
What pushes the 2009 Toyota RAV4 into chick-car territory is the fact that the SUV can be described as “cute” or “small.” Instantly, all masculine street cred is kicked to the adorable pink curb of chick-cardom.
