She wants a "small SUV" - what are the good options here that I can buy preferably CPO or lightly used for $20,000 ish. She also keeps talking about "lets get something new because the costs are so close" but I hate the idea of buying brand new.
I don't really care what she gets, but she was talking about getting a Rav4 (her car was a 2012 corolla, and I hated it as far as comfort/feature levels), but I was thinking there are probably something else more comfortable perhaps. Only real requirement is AWD, everything else negotiable.
After driving 2 hours in a much-worse-than-expected snow storm with several inches on the ground, an even more enthusiastic vote for CX-5. Thing was a champ.
Just try having her drive a CX-5? My wife was debating others but once she drove it, absolutely loved it.
