A Lexus RX350 can be had for not much more than a RAV4 or CRV. We ended up with an Infiniti QX70 for less than we would have paid for one of those.

With 1 child stuck with what you have unless it's a coupe.

Agree. Stick with your car until #3 - then you'll definitely want a minivan.

Don’t get the RAV4 or CRV for kids in car seats

All good cars I’m sure but we aren’t done helping Archaea decide on his Bentley or Lamborghini yet.

If it was me, I’d just get a minivan. They’re awesome even for one kid.

I drove the Rogue for 6 months on my mission. Loved it.

of those choices, the CX-5 seems to be the sportiest. I almost bought one myself

Been looking at those type of cars too. Similar ratings

You're right. Tucson and CX-5 will be the best value, as both are great to drive

'17 CX-5 has the new body style.

Now I'm going to make you feel bad, this is what having a child used to cost...

We’ve owned a couple of Rav 4s. We always liked them.

Forester is another decent Asian compact- if I had to buy again I’d get a Tiguan

Rav or Mazda
