Car shopping, part 1

My current car has lasted me about six years, and is at 95,000 miles, so it's time to start looking for a new one. And, for once, I'm starting to shop while my current car still works (I bought my second car when I did because I wasn't sure my first would get back home from the dealership, and I ended up having to walk to a dealer to get my current car). Because the class was in something of a fallow period last time I was shopping, I've decided to look at station wagon-ish things first.
( The cars! )

I will note that the only car dealership within a reasonable walk of my home is the Dodge dealership, so I plan to test drive some of their other offerings when I get time, just so I have a good idea what their range is in case my current car dies suddenly and I need to repeat my 2000 experience. :/
