We are looking at getting a used car. AWD Wagons from the early to mid 2000s is what we have been looking at. I like the BMWs but I want to pay cash and not have to make payments.

The cars we are looking at are the Subaru Outback and the Volvo Cross Country. I like the Volvo because they are just safe/sound vehicles and the Cross Country is loaded.

I like the Outbacks because they are everywhere and I know more about them. Parts might be cheaper???

What would you guys get under eight grand in an AWD Station Wagon?
