What is the best used SUV to buy?

Like we said above, most used SUVs for sale are incredibly reliable. Finding the SUV that is right for you involves looking more at features and options. Here are some tips for deciding which one is best for your lifestyle:

• Are you planning on paying in cash or financing? Decide on your budget before you walk into our dealership. This way, we can lead you to cars that fit your financial situation. This decision will change your budget considerably.

• Consider how you are planning on using your SUV. Is it more for grocery trips and picking up the kids? Or are you looking for an off-roading vehicle that can also be good around town? Maybe you do a lot of camping and need sufficient cargo space for your gear. We can help you find used SUVs near you that offer all that and more.

• Know which models you should avoid. If you're buying used, you should avoid models that won't last. A few SUVs for sale don't stand the test of time.

• Once you're at our dealership, take multiple SUVs out for a drive. Even if you think you love the first one you drive, check out some others too! You might find one you love more or realize the first one doesn't have something you need.

How many miles should you buy a used SUV? 

The average person drives about 12,000 to 14,000 miles a year. You want your SUV to be somewhere in that range. Look at its age and multiply that by 12,000. If the mileage is too high or low, you might want to avoid that car. It could indicate that this SUV for sale is in worse shape than its age suggests.

Luckily, SUVs tend to last longer than cars. You can trust them to go the distance. If you buy an SUV with more miles on it, it will be much more affordable. If it is an exceptionally long-lasting model, go for it! 

Which used SUV lasts the longest?

SUVs have bigger engines than cars, which is why they last longer. In that same spirit, bigger SUVs with hardier engines also tend to be among the longest-lasting.

• Chevrolet Tahoe: This is one of the most dependable SUVs out there, according to J.D. Power. Size-wise, it's a larger SUV with lots of cargo space. It also has a towing capacity of over 6,000 pounds!

Which used small SUV is the most reliable?

Just because the bigger SUVs dominate the longest-lasting list doesn't mean the smaller ones can't hold their own! Here are some used compact SUVs for sale that win points for reliability.

• Jeep Wrangler: It's hard to pass over a used Jeep for sale. Aside from its reliability, its iconic look makes it stand out from the crowd. If you love adventure and need a vehicle that will love it as much as you, the Jeep Wrangler is for you.

• Toyota RAV4: This is one of the all-time longest-lasting vehicles out there. It will carry you and your family around for a long time! As of writing this article, Ewald CJDR has multiple models of this used SUV for sale. 

What is the best used SUV for gas mileage?

If you're switching from a car to an SUV, you're probably not looking forward to the change in gas mileage. Here are a few of the best fuel-efficient SUVs to make that switch a little less painful.
