Thrid Row Seating/AWD vehicles
I am looking into a possible new vehicle. It must be AWD and have a third row seat. NO VANS. So looking for a crossover or SUV. And I want to keep it under $30K. Pacifica is looking the best right now...I wish the edge had Third row...but sadly...any suggestions? Taurus X looks cool...I wonder about pricing...probably close to the Freestyle....any help would be..helpfull. Thanks!

How about looking at a pre-owned Subaru Tribeca? They have a wonderful ride. Almost sporty.

A new one will run you past $30k though.

I really have become more open minded to other vehicles now that I'm back in a Subie. The only downfall they have is the $$$ you gotta pay for the turbo models

I think the Volvo V70 R (AWD, 300hp, optional 6-speed manual) has rear facing third row seating, but I think that option was removed in 2006.
