Did I just buy an SUV?

I didn't mean to. I am an environmentalist. Really. But before I knew it, there it was, in front of my house.

    Yeah, right now I have a Subaru Impreza Outback Sport wagon, in which I transport 3 dogs (to Agility and Flyball tournaments) 2 people and camping equipment. IF we need more space, we use the boyfriend's Ford Focus wagon, which holds a bit more. If we're feeling lazy and don't want to pack carefully, we borrow my parents' well-used Odyssey. Probably the Focus gets the best mileage. The Subaru was great when I lived in the Chicago area (and still is for occasional heavy snow) but I probably don't need AWD at this point. However, it's 7 years old and paid for.
