There's no aspect of the Liberty (as far as I can see) that is the ultimate expression of that aspect, size, mileage, economy, ruggedness, cuteness, cargo space, etc, etc.

It does have an early, but probably not insurmountable lead in "I like it-ness" since she has driven a couple cars and likes that model the best. She's being quite rational in her decision making process, considering many aspects of the whole car buying/owning adventure.

I think, if anything, she's underestimating the burden a five year loan represents. She's not (completely) swayed by the emotional response to one vehicle or another. She wants a nice car. I think this could be a nice car. She is coming to understand the economics of owning the car (payment, gas, maintenance, insurance, etc).

Other contenders:

Saturn Vue

Honda CRV

Toyota RAV-4

Suzuki SX4

Current ride:

Volkswagen Golf
