Well believe it or not, there are some SUV's dirt cheap in the used market right now due to rising gas prices again. I just saw a 2007 extra large SUV at a dealer here for $13,000 that was in MINT condition, V8 engine and can tow 7500 pounds. Get this, the same vehicle was listed at $17,000 on Carmax's site.
The local ads are flooded with cheap SUV's here, as the gas prices have jumped 10% to 20% in only one month. The deals on big trucks are far and few between and are MUCH more expensive though generally, plus I'd be more comfortable driving a large SUV around town, than a heavy duty truck.
I know SUV isn't as safe, so gotta think about it.
