Robet and Liz Conner love their 1996 Toyota RAV4. Not only is the

car "really cute," Robert says, but it handles well in the snow and

has amenities, such as automatic locks and a cassette deck, that

he's enjoying.

Trish Ceglio's 1996 Suzuki X-90 combines features of a sport utility

and sports car. Ceglio likes its high stance, boxy shape and

removable T-tops.
