Other notable sites with slightly less users are cars.com, carfax.com, and kbb.com

Usually a dealership will use at least one of those four and sometimes more than one.
Thank you!

Something like a Toyota Rav 4 or Honda CR-V.
I thought I wanted a Nissan Rogue due to great fuel mileage and 5K lower price than the above. But the ride is rougher than I wanted.
So not sure what I want at this point... other than a Toyota or Honda for about 1K more than a Rogue. :-)

Did you test driven any of these? I went through about 2 months of going to different dealerships before deciding on the Subaru Outback. The ride is very comfortable and it gets about 30 mpg on the hwy. The RAV4 and the CRV rode a little higher off the ground but weren't very comfortable in their rides.
