Hey everyone,

I’m trying to pick a used SUV with a budget of about $8,000 max. My main goal is reliability and low maintenance — ideally something I can just do regular oil changes and basic upkeep without constant repairs.

I’ve narrowed it down to a few options:

1. 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL

~$10k (a bit over budget), ~107k miles, AWD, 1 owner, no accidents

2. 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 2.0T

~$7.5k, ~92k miles, FWD, 1 owner, no accidents

3. 2019 Chevrolet Trax LT

~$9k, ~95k miles, FWD, 1 owner, no accidents

4. 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe SE (V6 AWD)

~$5.7k, ~100k miles, AWD, 1 owner, no accidents

5. 2008 Toyota RAV4 (base)

~$8k, ~112k miles, FWD, 1 owner, no accidents

What I care about is reliability, not constantly fixing things

Hello everyone, I’m a 26-year-old female who recently found a job near Morristown and am looking to move there by May 25th. I’ve been searching for apartments, but most 1 BR options are either unavailable or really expensive. I was wondering if any other female is also looking for a roommate and would be interested in sharing a two-bedroom apartment at a more reasonable price. Feel free to message me if you’re interested or in a similar situation!
