I know very little about cars and espouse the buy best (used) car for cheap. But looks like I will need to compromise a bit on this one with fiance.
Unfortunately, we need a second car since we both need to drive to work (I know this is the norm for most couples, but we used to live in NYC and that wasn't the case). Current car is a 2012 Prius V, fully paid off. I will be driving this car to work since I have the longer commute.
So - fiance wants a "luxury" SUV. He wants new although I could prolly convince him to buy CPO. He wants something like the Volvo XC60.
In terms of space needs - we have a baby and 11 year old bonus son part time. So needs to transport 2 adults, 1 baby and pre-teen. We don't plan to have more kids. We want/need AWD since it snows a lot here in Philadelphia.
So, what is best value for luxury SUV, is that an oxymoron? And yes, we can pay cash for this. I still have student loans but at 2.25% will be < $75K by the time we purchase.
Please, no mini-van suggestions
