RAV4, CRV, or ??? Also New or Used?
Posted on 6/19/16 at 3:00 pm

This summer we are getting a new (or possibly previously owned) smaller SUV. We have a Highlander now and love it, but want a smaller kind this time around.
Criteria:
No American makes.
Warranty.
Price factor.
Not necessarily entry level base models.
Like in order - Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mazda... Hyundai, Kia... what else?
Experiences, anyone? Suggestions?

Between those 2 Crv no doubt

3.6L Outback is better than everything you listed. Same ground clearance as a Wrangler. Superior AWD. Crazy cargo room for a wagon. The CVT is my only complaint. 30mpg highway is doable. Tows 3000lbs. That's 2X most crossover types. It also looks sharp.

If you need a warranty, may as well buy new.
If you are buying a CRV or RAV, chances of you using a warranty are miniscule.

Subaru Outback

We were in the same market this summer, but CRV was out, because my son's girlfriend already had a CRV. Ended up getting the Hyundai Tuscon. Great little car and very highly rated. Also, has one of the best and longest warranties in the business.

What you think I rap for? To push a f****** RAV4?
Posted on 6/19/16 at 3:35 pm to JawjaTigah
We've had good luck with the RAV4

I got a Subaru Forester in September and would highly recommend it. I've loved it so far.

Mazda CX-5 is the highest rated in its class, and they run well for years with minimal maintenance. I'd also suggest the Subury Forester/Outback as others have mentioned.
Both the CRV and RAV4 are good, but unexciting, vehicles.

Honda HRV is much less expensive than the CRV

We looked CRV and Rav4 and ended up buying a highlander. Just a much better ride.

My wife had a Honda CRV and it was the best vehicle we've ever owned. Was involved in a pretty bad accident held up like a champ.

My wife drives a Mitsubishi Outlander. We just got one loaded for right at 26k. Crazy room and lots of bells and whistles.

Just get a new Highlander. You won't like the smaller crossovers after the newness wears off.

Is this the soccer board ?

Push the Rav4; best bang for the buck

Jeep Grand Cherokee
Base model is RWD, 4WD as an option, decent room and heterosexual males drive them rather than a RAV4 or a CRV.
Entry level (Laredo) is cheap and comes with a decent warranty, they'll tow OK, and you can outfit it to actually stack stuff on top of it.
Avoid Mitsubishi, I wouldn't get the Mazda or a Nissan, GM's small SUV offerings look like shite until you get to the Acadia and its significantly higher prices than a base Jeep GC.
Ford? Explorer maybe?
Nope to any Kia/Hyundai.
