Bookmark or Share- How to buy a car (if you must) - Mr. Money MustacheThis is the most important step, and the step where the most money is at stake. 90% of the 4WD SUVs you see driving around never go off-road. 90% of the trucks never haul anything. 90% of Jeeps are used to commute between a suburban house and an office building, or idle in the Chick-fil-A drive-thru.
- 10 Most Fuel Efficient SUVs - forum.mrmoneymustache.comTrucks/SUVs typically have a higher center of balance so are more dangerous than a minivan or car due to higher chance of rolling over . . . especially in deep snow. If you take your family on long trips several times a week, they make less sense than a minivan (worse fuel economy, more expensive).
- Small SUV or Minivan for Family of 4? - Mr. Money MustacheBe sure to seat test the second and third row seats. I've rented minivans and SUVs (which were really minivans w/o sliding doors) that had terrible passenger seats. If you are hauling little kids perhaps it doesn't matter too much. If you are hauling older teens and adults - test those seats.
- So is the SUV craze largely an American way of waste?Where as my experience in the US was probably a similar percentage of total SUVs, but a much higher proportion being in the very large category. My travels elsewhere (rest of pacific, Asia, Europe, middle east) had a vastly lower percentage of SUVs in the passenger vehicle mix, with car stocks being more biased towards smaller cars in general.
- Author Topic: Best car/hatchback/SUV to sleep in during a long-term ...Another vote of Hyundai Elantra...though we have the precursor to the GT, the Touring. The Touring, last model is 2012, is more of a wagon than a hatchback so has extra room. It actually feels like a small car up front and when driving but then has tons of space in the back. Better than many small SUVs.
