debating getting a new honda
 

Hello all, we currently have a highlander for our "family car", V6 and
AWD, which means about 18.5 mpg for us (UGGH)......well, gas prices
have us reconsidering its legitimacy. We are thinking about getting
either a new Civic EX, Accord LX, SE or EX 4 cyl, or new Camry LE or SE
4 cylinder. (I don't like the Corolla)

Specifically, will the civic be suitable for use as a primary "family"
car. We have one child (no more planned, trust me!). I know it is a
"step down" from the highlander, but we really like the looks of the
civic, and we LOVE the MPG it gets! Could 2 normal sized adults fit in
the back of the new civic with a small child seat in the middle? This
is an occasional situation for us, but rarely. This would be one of
the reasons I may reconsider and get an Accord or Camry 4 cyl instead.

Also, are there any major issues with the new civic with it being a
redesign and all? Thanks for any and all comments.
