The Varieties Of Used SUVs
If you’re looking for a used SUV, there is truly a huge variety to choose from. Everything from the sporty Toyota RAV-4 to the powerful Chevy Suburban is available from recommended used car dealers on the web. Be sure to check out pictures and prices when you’re shopping for your used car online.
Some of the smaller, sportier SUVs are the RAV-4, the Jeep Liberty, the Isuzu Rodeo and the Nissan XTerra. Reliable and on the small side, with horsepower in the 130s and 140s, these SUVs are more fuel efficient and easier to park. The smaller SUVs have better handling, often with improved steering and torque. The Xterra has a supercharger option for more rugged driving.
Some lesser known used SUVs that you might want to look for are the Chevy Tracker, a gutsy jeep-like all-terrain vehicle. It’s light on its feet with a 2.0L 127 HP engine, but it’s way ahead on the gas mileage, with 23 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. Also keep your eyes peeled for the Toyota Highlander, a four speed automatic with a 2.4L 155 HP engine. It combines the versatility of a 4×4 with an easy drive fit for a soccer mom.
At the top of their class are the truly hefty, road-hogging SUVs with real power and acceleration. One of the most popular is the Ford Expedition. The Expedition has a 4.6L V-8 232 HP engine, and can haul anything. But it’s got an elegant interior with smooth shifting, and comes in a four speed automatic with overdrive. It’s match is the Jeep Grand Cherokee, which feels like a sports car with a 4.7L V-8 engine. Whatever your choice of used trucks or SUVs, you’ll find what you’re looking for on the web.
