Big weekend plans at the moment include going new car shopping. Haven't decided which way I'm going to go as far as model wise, but with some more information I should be able to figure it out.

Buddy had a Cruze and I was not a big fan of it.  I just bought a new Ford Fusion (SE) last month and am very satisfied with it.  I gave them my 2007 G6 GT.  While the G6 has more "pep", the Fusion is no slouch. MPG also 50% better as well.

The Ford Fusions are great cars. Those are my rental cars of choice. Plus nice and roomy. I'm a mustang guy and it's all I've ever owned. With the new 2015 style change on the way, I'm torn with which 2014 model to go with.

Either the Shelby GT500 with 662 hp or the GT California Special with 425 hp. The GT/CS is the more practical every day car but I don't envision another future mustang being produced with the power of the GT500.

I had a 2012 charger rt RWD - which was a blast, but I live in SE MI and can't afford to have two cars, so it was my daily driver.  As such, I burned through tires really really fast and it was tough getting around in the winter.

The AWD system on the charger is pretty nice - only engages when its below 40degrees, when it senses slip and if you turn the traction control off.  So, hoping to still get decent MPG if I don't flog it. Does great in the snow!  No Jeep, but it does really well.
