I currently have my Jeep Grand Cherokee up for sale. When it goes I will be ready to buy. For now I have just been looking at the market and what cars are going for. I have narrowed down what I want.

2008-2010 Subaru Outback
less than 100k miles
manual trans unless I can find the 3.0-6, then I will settle for the auto
not picky on color but no gold or tan
preferably a good service history and from a southern state.

I bought a super clean VW Passat a few years ago from Orlando, FL and drove it home to PA. I would not rule out a trip like that again but AZ is a bit far.
