My current daily driver is an '01 F/awd RX300, purchased new and now at 75k Miles. Drive my wife to work each morning, go home and do honey-does, pick her up in the evening. Alternate, if the dog isn't going along, is an '01 Porsche C4. Second alternate is a '94 Ford Aerostar AWD, third is a 93 Ford Ranger PU.
Currently considering the Mazda CX-7 but will immediately mill the engine head to bring the CR up to the DFI "standard" of 12.5:1 and "wire" the turbo wastegate fully open. Otherwise the CX-7 runs in derated, 9.5:1 CR, mode 99% of the time which makes the MPG nothing less than abysmal.
