Our Favorite Used SUV Models

The popularity of SUVs continues because these vehicles are known for more space, flexibility, and features than smaller cars. There are better safety features now in SUVs and a certain comfort that many drivers experience with a higher view of the road.

SUVs offer plenty of seating and storage space, and now include fuel economy that rivals smaller sedans. They come in various sizes, from compact to vehicles spreading three rows of seats, not to mention different colors and options available. Whether you are transporting a youth sports team or building supplies for do-it-yourself home improvements, there's an SUV that can meet your lifestyle.  

If you are looking for a used SUV, visit the Glockner family of dealerships to test drive a used Buick Enclave, Ford Escape, Dodge Journey, or Honda CR-V. Our used SUV selection is designed to serve anyone looking for a bit more space and versatility. Here are a few of our favorite used SUVs.

Used Small SUVs

The small SUV is a great transition for the driver used to the limited space of a compact car who wants a roomier interior that doesn't feel too overwhelming. The small SUVs offer better cargo and passenger space without sacrificing fuel economy. They are priced similar to regular sedans but offer more capabilities. Here are a few of our favorite small SUVs.

Buick Encore

The Buick Encore is among the most compact and most affordable vehicles offered by General Motors. Introduced more than eight years ago, the Encore is the big brother to the newer Buick Encore GX. The two vehicles share similarities in design and some of the tech features. These small SUVs are known for their stylish compact design and comfort, not to mention performance, gas mileage, and features that rival larger sedans. 

 

Chevrolet Equinox

The Chevrolet Equinox stands out among its competition, like the Encore, the Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, and Toyota RAV4. The Equinox has taken a stylish turn, featuring sportier trims and features than its competitors. This compact SUV is known for its comfort, smooth ride, and interior space, in addition to its refreshed styling. 

 

Ford Escape

The Ford Escape is a favorite among small SUVs, featuring reliability and noticeable options, like hybrid powertrain and the Escape's transmission paired with the conventional 1.5-liter turbocharged inline-three or a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four gasoline engine. The Escape offers a comfortable and spacious cabin, loaded with lots of tech and driving assistance. It also features a surprisingly decent amount of cargo space for the smaller SUV class. 

 

Used Midsize SUVs

The midsize SUV class offers more space and flexibility, from a sportier design to a large, reliable vehicle. Whether you are seeking slightly more room than the compact SUV or eight-passenger seating, the midsize SUV can provide the additional space, power and luxury features that you are looking for. Here are some of our favorites. 

Chevrolet Blazer

The Chevy Blazer is a more stylish SUV, also offering a bit more space and features. This vehicle comes with the 2LT trim as its entry style, with reliable cargo space and a bit more comfort than the smaller vehicles. This slightly larger SUV continues to compete in fuel economy, available options, and technology. 

 

Used Ford Edge

The Ford Edge offers a lot, with a spacious interior in addition to its two rows of seating. This is a sporty SUV that is fun to drive, particularly the version that includes the twin-turbo V6 engine. The Edge boasts a modern interior that, for newer models, includes Ford's Sync 3 infotainment interface.

 

Best Used 3 Row SUVs

When you need more than a midsize, consider the three-row SUVs that cater to bigger hauls and passenger loads. With designs similar to the big truck competitors, these vehicles can do it all and still manage to put up respectable gas mileage. These are a few of our favorites.

Chevrolet Traverse

The larger Chevrolet Traverse offers three rows of comfort and passenger space designed to serve big families or big workloads. This sleek and slim front keeps a stylish look for such a workhorse, a design that carries through to the taillights in the rear. The roomy interior also offers lots of tech, with a central touchscreen in newer models that serve as the infotainment hub. Driver-assist features like forward collision and lane departure warnings are standard, and there are some available options to upgrade tech features.

 

Dodge Durango

For those who like lots of muscle in their vehicle, the Dodge Durango does not disappoint. This is a beautiful beast of an SUV, with sportiness and power included in its stylish design. The 3.6-liter V6 engine comes standard, and other choices include two V8 engines. Inside, the Durango boasts three rows of seating and a towing capacity of up to 8,700 pounds. This is a great choice for towing and any other adventure planned. It comes complete with technical offerings to set it apart in its class. 

 

Buick Enclave

The Buick Enclave is another three-row SUV designed with plenty of space and comfort. This vehicle also offers a surprising list of features, including wireless connectivity and driving assist aids. This powerful, family-friendly SUV can do it all with comfortable seating for seven and loads of cargo space. 

 

Chevrolet Suburban

The Chevrolet Suburban is the classic full-size SUV capable of seating seven and hauling a big boat behind it. This big three-row SUV has evolved to be more like a modern car than a replica of the work truck. It features exterior and interior styling, along with reliable unibody construction. This is the first choice for many big families looking for power, comfort, convenience, and reliability all in one big vehicle.

 

Choosing the Right Used SUV

The choice of SUVs runs a large spectrum of small to massive, with individual and family needs of the power, space, and features in mind. Depending on what you need, you can find what works for you among a large inventory of vehicles.
