What suv to get? - Page 4

GsXtUrBo98 · 05-02-2012

cayenne s? I dont know anything about them but I think it would be a cool suv to get and you can get a 04 or 05 for anywhere from 15k to 25k

Probably expensive to fix.

Lined up a test drive for an SRT-8

Nick, if you want to test drive a TB SS, you can drive our Saab 9-7x Aero (Same 6.0 LS2 engine).

I think they drive a bit nicer than the SS (quicker steering, beefier sway bars and bilsteins), definitely have a nicer interior, hids, air ride suspension, read dvd player nav and all that.

Fuel mileage sucks though, hardcore. She is averaging 15.5mpg with Melissa driving.

You still have the saab? LOL I thought you were saying you needed an upgrade.

Good info though as I was unaware they came with the LS2. I guess another one I could add to the list.

Sidebar- Im offering to you this first. Wanna buy your talon back?

We traded in the one you remember and got a newer Aero version which comes with another 100hp

I'd love to buy the Talon back but I couldn't do it right now.

OH really! Ill have to check it out then one of these days

**JET** · 05-05-2012

I would imagine there are some pretty amazing deals out there on Saabs too!

turbotalon1g · 05-29-2012

TBSS with boost.

**CornFed2.4** · 05-29-2012

Were getting a 07+ style Denali. Thread can be closed. Lol

**JET** · 05-30-2012

Check out some forums on how they handle in the snow. LOTS of complaints on them. They went to a full open system and use the brakes to control everything and the guys hate them, that is the reason we haven't upgraded ours. In like '09 or '10 they fixed it, but they are spendy yet.

You can do diesel swaps that bolt right in.

Figured I'd update this thread as we brought home the new vehicle tonight. So after test driving a ton of cars over that past few months. We made a decision. Unfortunately we did not buy any in the poll above, but honestly I couldn't be happier price was right and closed the deal tonight.

Vehicle we bought

2008 pearl white Ford Edge limited
48k
18" chrome rims
Panoramic sunroof
Factory warranty till August 2013.

We payed $15900

Car gets 24 mpg on hwy so it's a huge jump from 14 lol. And I saved $19 a month over the Acura on insurance.

Didn't have a DVD system but were order headrests in a month or so.

Nice! Ive been looking at those too, let me know how you like it long term.

**JET** · 01-09-2013

Very nice. Ford is making some solid products now and for that price you can't go wrong.

**CornFed2.4** · 01-09-2013

Yeah I was pretty impressed with the edge. I'm like the wide wheel base and that fact it does not need premium fuel.

Ford has really stepped it up I think to. We will probably have it payed off by spring next yr so we wanna look at the new 2013 explorers.
