Please research these vehicles carefully, do you really need a large SUV or
is a midsize sufficient for you? Is gas mileage a concern? Are you towing with the
vehicle? Remember that a vehicle with high resale value usually has less mechanical
problems and has a longer life than a vehicle with low resale value. They are always
easier to sell privately and dealers always want high resale value vehicles on their
used car lot.
