  Although “Cash for Clunkers” has hit the road, pet people everywhere are still picking out their new wheels. Naturally, their pet’s safety and comfort are top priority. But the research is overwhelming. Does the new ride offer a pet restraint system? Check. Tri-climate control? Check. Fold-flat rear seats? Check. Treat holders? Check.

Fortunately, Edmunds.com and the pet-travel safety group, Bark Buckle Up narrow down the selection with their Top 10 Pet-Safe Vehicles for 2009.

Look what made the list (in alphabetical order): Dodge Journey, Ford Flex, GMC Acadia, Hyundai Tucson, Jeep Liberty, Kia Borrego, Mazda 5, Mitsubishi Outlander, Subaru Tribeca, Volvo XC70.

Get your paws on them and get rolling! Read more about the Top 10 here.
