Hi guys and thanks in advance for any help! I make an almost weekly trip from Las Vegas, NV to Sacramento, CA. Its a 550 mile trip that includes temperatures well over 110 in the summer, long stretches of open road, and of course Crossing the Sierra Mountains.

The two cars I have right now are not ideal for the trip.

1992 Honda Accord has 210,000 miles on it, has an over heating problem, and i would be surprised if it could handle crossing the sierras

2008 Mazda 3 really struggles crossing the mountains and its a brand new car with low miles on it and I really would rather not put 3-5000 miles on it each month.

So what i need is a car that meets a few basic requirements:
Reliable
Has enough power to cross the mountains
Cheap
Good Fuel economy
Comfortable(its 9-10 hours each way i don't want to sit on a rock the whole time)So that basicly sums it up. Any ideas? Thanks a bunch

Pontiac G6 offers some pretty decent power and as long as you don't drive it hard good fuel mileage. Don't know about reliability though! My mom has one with 16,000 miles on it and it has been pretty good so far. She has had some front brake issues but other than that problem free.

I'm not lookin to buy another brand new car in thinkin somethin older thats gunna be real cheap im comin up blank on the search

Well then I would probably recommend a Honda Civic for you. Can't beat it when it comes to reliability and great on gas!
