2006 Safest Suv
What SUV Should I buy?
I wanted a honda pilot or cr-v but the pilot was just to expensive and I don’t like the new 2007 body style of the cr-v. There are no more new 2006 c-r-vs and the used ones already have 50,000+ miles on them.I am giving up on the cr-v but I still need an suv.
Something around $20,000 that will last. Good milage and safe for family cross country trips. I don’t want a huge suv like the expadition. Something smaller m=and made for a lady. any sugestions
Please tell me what you think I might like about the suv. like gas milage or safty freatures. thanks for the help

The redesigned RAV4 is our highest-rated small SUV. The V6 version scores at the top, the four-cylinder is second. It has a flexible, well-designed interior and agile handling. It is much more substantial than its predecessor, with a quieter interior, a more comfortable ride, and better fuel economy in the four-cylinder. Handling is agile and secure with standard stability control. The rear seat is roomy. A third-row seat is optional. The four-cylinder engine is carried over, and it feels responsive. The optional 3.5-liter V6 makes the RAV quick and quiet, and it returns only 1 mpg less than the Four, but in Limited trim it pushes the price up to $30,000. Front side- and curtain air bags are standard for 2007.
