Because I know NOTHING about cars...
Due to recent circumstances, it looks as though I may be getting a new car. I'm looking for one that is EXTREMELY safe (right now, I wouldn't mind driving a Sherman tank if it meant safety), possible 4WD (because I live in Colorado and it's almost a necessity here), and not ridiculously overpriced (because I am a grad student). I'm possibly interested in a small SUV...suggestions?
