How to Find an SUV for Sale

Sport utility vehicles are very popular in the United States. SUVs are meant to be able to withstand heavy conditions and terrain that a normal car could not. Many people buy them because they are large vehicles and look good. If you would like to buy an SUV, there are many ways to find vehicles for sale near you.

  • Visit the CarMax website. Once on the site, enter your zip code and the search radius to find vehicles near you. You can then narrow your search down to just SUVs using the options under the "Body" section. CarMax is known for the quality of vehicles it sells and its low, no-haggle prices. It also puts every car through a 125-point inspection before it can be sold.

  • Visit the Cars.com website. On the main page, choose "Advanced search" underneath the initial search option to access more search options. In the "Body Style" section, choose "Let Me Choose Body Styles" and choose "SUV." This will return only SUVs with the specifications you set. Cars.com has one of the largest selections of vehicles from around the country. Be cautious because you will be dealing with other individuals who are trying to sell their cars.

  • Visit the Auto Trader website. Similar to Cars.com, you can search using your zip code and then narrow the results down to just SUVs. Auto Trader has a pretty wide selection of vehicles to choose from. You will be dealing with private sellers so be wary.

  • Navigate to Craigslist and choose "cars+trucks" under the "For Sale" section. Craigslist is home to many items that have been placed for sale by users like yourself. You could literally find anything you happen to be looking for on Craigslist. Pay close attention to any ads you respond to as people have been scammed on Craigslist.
