could use some help choosing the right SUV?
I’m looking at purchasing a used SUV in the $10-11k range. (long story, but my mom is buying me a car to make my dad angry and it has to be under $12k after taxes, etc)
Which puts me at around a 2003 Hyundia Santa Fe or Honda Element.
I like SUVs that are smaller like the Element and Xterra (Nissan). Any other suggestions to look at? I looked at a 2002 Escape but the 02-03 models all seem to have engine trouble according to autos.msn.com (not that that website is the be-all end all to car buying, but the user Reviews help)
I have a 97 Grand Am presently and I’d like to keep MPG with similar range to what my grand am does 15/25 or better, if at all possible.
I’m also looking to get 4-5 years (at least) out of whatever my next Car/suv will be.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much in advance
I’m not all that familiar with the Santa Fe, but I do know the Element has some nice features that make it easy to use. Things such as washable floors, quick raise seats, a boatload of plug n play outlets. Plus, since it’s a Honda reliability won’t be an issue.

Really like my Jeeps! An SUV won’t get the mileage of your Grand Am.
