2023 Chevy Tahoe

1: Know What Type You Need

The term SUV means “Sport Utility Vehicle,” but there are multiple types of SUVs under that umbrella.

Compact SUVs are perfect for their manageable size and offer fantastic urban driving. They offer enough cargo space for passengers without the bulk many SUVs bring.

Mid-Size SUVs—Like the Chevy Traverse, these SUVs balance performance, size, and cargo space, offering more seating and off-road capabilities.

Full-Size SUVs—These larger SUVs have a roomy third row and are perfect for long-distance treks and heavy hauls. They meet any cargo space need.

Luxury SUVs—Like the Cadillac Escalade, these models offer upscale materials, state-of-the-art tech, and convenience features to bring you premium comfort no matter the drive.

With these types in mind, you must research which model will work for you and how it will enhance your lifestyle of off-roading daily errands or heading to weekend getaways. A used SUV can offer you everything you need and more!

Tahoe Cargo space

2: How Much Cargo Space Do You Need?

Do you need extra space for your commutes, or does your family need more seats? An SUV is a fantastic way to comfortably hold whatever you need, but how much room do you need?

As a Mid-Size SUV, the Chevy Traverse can easily hold any luggage or materials and your passengers. Still, a full-size like a GMC Yukon or Cadillac Escalade offers more room for passengers and belongings.

SUVs provide the perfect space to help you dominate any need or job, but it’s best to determine what fits your needs and preferences before you take one out for a spin.

Off Roading with the trailblazer

3: Are You an Off-Road Enthusiast?

Behind trucks, SUVs are another perfect way to travel off the beaten path in style, and some specifically tackle various terrains!

Models like a used GMC Terrain, the Chevy Traverse, Jeep Wrangler, and more allow you to take the adventure wherever you want with a perfect balance of cargo space, performance, and features to help you conquer any trail.

While an off-roading SUV may look similar to traditional SUVs, these models offer:

  • Off-Road Suspension
  • Skid Plates
  • Drive Modes
  • Stronger Builds
  • And More!

A used SUV is a perfect way to hit the open road and try out trails. With a rugged build, pre-owned models can stand the test of time and help you take on any terrain you want!

Safety features

4: What Utility Do You Need?

SUVs are a perfect all-around vehicle that can tow and haul various materials, but each type has unique characteristics.

Suppose you’re looking for a light tow. In that case, you can go for a compact or mid-size SUV like the Chevy Blazer. Opt for a full-size model like the GMC Yukon if you have heavy trailers. With enhanced towing capabilities and proper equipment, you can easily haul material to any job site or your weekend getaway!

5: How Safe are SUVs?

New and modern SUVs offer advanced tech and driver assistance features like automatic emergency braking, rear cameras, blind-spot monitoring, and more! The best part is that used models still provide these state-of-the-art systems to keep you and your family safe!

Chevy Blazer

 

Fantastic models like a pre-owned Blazer offer Chevy safety Assist, which stacks span almost all Chevy models that sedans and trucks struggle to meet.
