Best SUVs

The best SUV that you can buy is determined by one thing: you. Buying the best SUV should be determined by several factors that all relate to what you want the vehicle to do. There is no point buying what the dealer says is the ‘best SUV’ if it doesn’t do any of the things that you are wanting it to do. Things to consider when buying the best SUV:

•    How much money can you afford to spend on the best SUV? There is no point spending a huge amount of money on a car that you can’t afford to drive around, let alone pay loan repayments, fix it up if anything breaks and pay for servicing.
•    What do you want you’re best SUV to do? If you only want to drive it around the city, and carry your family around safely, then there is no need to go out and buy a vehicle that has roof racks, bull bars, big chunky tires and a suspension lift. It’s simply a waste of money.
•    How many people are going to be using the car? It’s no longer the best SUV if you can only fit half of your family in it, or if they have to be crammed up in the back seat.
•    Do you do any four wheel driving? The best SUV for different 4x4 is determined by strength, reliability, diferentials and suspension setups, and heaps more. If you only want to drive on the beach, then a lot of this won’t matter in the best SUV, but if you want to do serious mud work and rock crawling, then you will need a nicely modified SUV
•    Do you want a diesel or petrol car? They both have their advantages, but buying a petrol if you plan on doing a lot of towing and hard sand work is probably not a wise decision. Diesel engines tow better, and use less fuel when punished. These small things all add up, and will determine whether you get the best SUV, or not.
•    How often are you going to use it? If it’s only being used for a few hundred miles each week, then why buy a very expensive car? The best SUV for the job might be an older car, with a reliable motor.

To put it simply, the best SUV is determined by your individual needs. Ensure you consider these before choosing a vehicle, and then the car you get will be the best SUV for yourself.
