Go over to Car Max and roam the lot sitting in all the models you may be interested in. This will give you an idea of how comfortable it will be and if the sight lines are right for you.

I used to drive 1000+ a week. I always drove Toyota or Honda. I bought an Accord one time with 100,000 on it. Drove it for another 200,000 and sold it for $1500. It would get 35 mpg, that was my little money maker.
