With the roof rack we can load all of our needs for a week out of town with the dogs including their beds and everyone is comfortable.

He's looking at Toyota's, Honda's but would entertain a Nissan, Subaru or other it the price and story sounded good and the car fit the small 4 cyl, manual transmission and 30+ mpg theme. Keying in on the Honda's and Toyota's though. I'm amazed at the number of small cars out there with multiple hundreds of thousands miles on them. 200,000 is nothing apparently.
