Hi.
I'm considering buying a new car, but I want one that is affordable and won't attract too much attention to police.
I used to drive a Ford Explorer that was red and I kept getting pulled over for various reasons, one time a cop pulled me over for speeding, which I was not doing, he pulled me over because my truck was bright red.
I've read that it's just a myth that cops like to pull over cars that are red, but I actually believe that.
So my next car is going to be a color that is very soft.
So are there any suggestions?
Note: To all negative people, eventually you'll get pulled over by the cops, so don't act like your all great and perfect, there are no perfect people in this world, I've read plenty of posts on here that are replied by nasty people.
To all the positive people, thank you very much for the suggestions :)
 
I don't know what you consider "affordable" or your opinion on "being green", but if you want to get another SUV, I'd recommend a Kia (Sportage or Sorrento) or a Honda CR-V. The majority of my friends and family have SUVs and I know some people get really upset about our carbon footprints, but they work really well for us.

I have a Kia Sportage; I bought it brand new for less than $21,000 (which a few years ago was a very cheap price for an automatic V6 4WD SUV) and I love it. I have had virtually no problems w/ it. The one problem I did have (the gas cap wouldn't tighten properly and that caused the check engine light to come on) was covered under warranty (Kias have AWESOME warranties). But Hondas are stylish, reliable cars, w/ great resale values, and they get pretty decent gas mileage too, though they are a little more expensive.

As for color, I personally pay more attention to the interior than exterior. Dark interior gets hotter than light interior, and if you live in state that has hot summers and you wear shorts... this type of thing makes a big difference! LOL.
