About Aurora
Aurora is the 2nd biggest city within the state of Illinois in the United States. It is situated about 35 miles to the west of Chicago. It also lies on the edge of the Chicago land and located on the Fox River. This sprawling city has many opportunities for suburban and urban as well as rural recreation. This city is often overlooked but it has in fact numerous surprisingly interesting hot spots. It also has a downtown area which is not like any typical suburb. In addition, aurora is best known for the setting of the "Wayne’s World Movies".
Getting in and around the city of Aurora is very easy. If you are traveling by car, the city is just off the Interstate 88 highway in Illinois which is on the East-West Tollway. You can take the Route 31 exit on the south that is headed towards the city’s downtown area and almost all other interesting sites are easily accessible from there. You can also take the Farnsworth exit on the south to head for the Aurora Transportation Center, Walter Payton’s Roundhouse and the Philips Park Zoo.
It is also possible to arrive at Aurora by train for it is a part of the Metra commuter railway system of Chicago. The city is the last stop on the Burlington- Northern Santa Fe railway line that leaves from the Union Station.
Busses are also abundant in the city and you can easily arrive at Aurora in no time. Greyhound always makes a stop at the train station in Aurora on its "Chicago-Des Moines-Omaha" route. Just make sure that you are not on an express bus for it will not make a stopover in Aurora. In addition, the Aurora train station is a hub for "PACE" which is a Chicago land suburban bus service.
You can also get in at Aurora by air for it has its very own airport though it is best to fly into one of the airports in Chicago such as Midway or O’Hare and just take a taxi or train to the city of Aurora.
The easiest place to get in and around the suburbs of Aurora is by car. On the other hand, the PACE bus service also has extensive services in the city due to Aurora being the 2nd largest city.

Car in northern Vermont. Suggestions?
I'm a college student and I'm looking to buy a car for the weather in Burlington, Vermont. I'm looking for models that fit the following specs:
1.) I'm 6'5" and I need to fit comfortably.
2.) I need something good in the snow. (AWD? I drive to Johnson and Lyndonville frequently.)
3.) I want something that looks cool. (I'm not a fan of boxy cars like the Honda Element and the Scion xB.)
Any suggestions?
Subaru is the official personal vehicle of New England. Everybody and their brother drives one. That's gotta tell you something, plus Consumer Reports rates them pretty highly. Every Subaru is AWD and they offer a variety of models. I'd go down to your local dealer and check out the full line to see which one suits you best.
