What kind of jogging strollers do you ladies use?

I'm looking to purchase one, but not spend a ton of money on it...something more along the lines of the entry level Baby Trend or InStep brands. Any suggestions? Do you like the swivel or fixed wheel better? Do they fit in the trunk of your car?

Thanks!

I have a Bob revolution (expensive - was a gift from my parents)...I love it...was going to get the Ironman bob, but didnt want the fixed wheel cause it makes it a lot harder to make a turn (so if you want to use the stroller for anything other than running straight, you have to pop a wheelie)...I love the swivel wheel (the revolution gives you the option of either, but the swivel is easier)...

I have a baby trend, can't remember the model, I think it's the expedition. It's yellow and black. I *love* it. It has a switch on the handle that turns the swivel on or off, so I get the easy steering when I'm going in a straight line, but I don't have to lean the stroller back to turn. I would absolutely buy it again over any of the expensive brands.

I have a BOB Revolution - love it. It has a swivel wheel but you can lock it so it's fixed - I never do though. I have a midsized SUV and it fits in my trunk w/ plenty of room to spare.

We have a baby jogger summit xc. LOVE IT! Swivel wheel - like the other posters have said it is much easier to turn. We have no trouble with it fitting in my trunk (small suv). My biggest suggestion is to go into a store and check a bunch of them out. We did that and were surprised by our choice when we actually tested some out.
