This is a List.

Good afternoon, everyone! Today, I am posting a list. This is a list that concerns some small, affordable SUVs, which might help you make a decision if you were in the market for a small SUV. It is by no means a comprehensive list of all the comparable models on the current market, but just a few of those which I felt like researching. To be honest, I didn't feel like researching much, mostly because I think small SUVs are worthless. I can't see a reason to have a car that won't carry much more than a slightly smaller hatchback, but is more inclined to rollover or run into things when being parked because it's so big.  Really, I just generally don't like cars that are too big for me to park easily; this is everything larger than my current vehicle, in case you're wondering. In any case, and without further ado:

1. 2013 Mazda CX-5- The CX-5 is a good looking car, if you like SUVs. For me, that's like saying the chicken pox are a more attractive rash alternative to a poison ivy rash.

This one is more like goosebumps...not attractive, per say, but not reason to call a priest for an exorcism either.

Price: $20,695-ish
Engine: 16 valve, 4 cylinder, 2.0L
Horsepower: 155 @ 6000rpm
Fuel Economy: 26/32 (FWD), 25/31 (AWD)
Storage Capacity: 65.4 cubic feet

2. 2012 Honda CR-V- Honda makes dependable cars, and that's just a fact. Therefore, their teacup SUV should be pretty good.

Price: $22,295
Engine: 16 valve, 4 cylinder
Horsepower: 185 @ 7000rpm
Fuel Economy: 23/31 (2WD)
Storage Capacity: 70.9 cubic feet (rear seat down)

3. 2012 Nissan Murano- The Murano is stylish, comes in more attractive colors, and is more powerful. If you're worried about silly things like price or fuel economy, this probably isn't the teacup SUV for you. However, it is the most attractive one on this list, in my opinion.

It's so shiny.

 Price: $29,540
Engine: V6, 3.5L
Horsepower: 260
Fuel Economy: 18/24
Storage Capacity: 64 cubic feet

Of course, all of you are probably wondering what I would buy. So, here it is: if someone were to hold a gun to my head and force me to purchase an SUV, I would buy the Nissan Murano Crosscabriolet. Since the roof comes off, I'm more likely to be killed when it rolls over, and that would save me from my life in SUV hell.

You just have to wonder what they were smoking when they decided that the SUV, a vehicle prone to rolling, really needed was no roof. It'll fulfill my life-long ambition to be a cool soccer mom who is then horribly maimed in a tragic convertible SUV accident. Thank you, Nissan.
