Sometimes it’s all about the journey, which makes your car choice particularly important. If you’re about to embark on an unforgettable road trip around Bass Lake, a roomy SUV could be a good choice. If you’d like the best possible price and plan on sticking mostly to the city, a budget compact is a smart pick. All you have to do is work out what’ll suit you best, throw your bags in the back seat, and rack up those miles.
