If you are only seeing $1,000 off then I don't think you have a clue on how to shop for a vehicle. Just go buy a new one.

I can't help with the pricing, but for a car I would suggest a Honda Pilot.

I have a Murano 06 model and it drives like the day I drove it off the lot. Good crossover for a small family.

Are you looking at the listed prices or the actual market value?

Something that could come into play is certified pre-owned. Some manufacturers give better warranties on CPO cars than they do for brand new. Honda is one.

Where are you shopping if I may ask?

Get a Nissan 350Z and put the baby in the trunk.
It's got carpeting back there.

I know the financially correct thing to do buying a vehicle is 2-3 yrs old low miles. With that said the misses and I will be looking at a small SUV (Rav, CRV, Murano) for a possible family addition and it seems like I am only getting a 1000 dollar difference (if that) between new and used with most of the warranty eaten up already. Just wondering if anyone had any thoughts or had been through the same dilemma.

TIA


With trucks and SUV's I have found that often you can get a new one for the same to small difference in buying a used one. Trucks and SUV's have been what is in demand so that is why there isn't the huge disparity. With all the rebates and discounts I would probably look at New first, decide what you want to buy then research btwn new and used and don't limit yourself to buying locally. You can get better prices in larger cities.
