Smokey Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 My apologies when I was looking at X5 diesels those were the costs. Didn't realize there were cheaper options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseyctsv Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks for all of the info - list now includes: 2011+ Audi Q7 TDI and 3.0t 2010+ Mercedes GL320 Bluetec 2010+ Suburban LTZ (That is the order I would put them in, but if I am honest I think we will end up with another Suburban) If we go Suburban it will continue to be an "extra" car which I am trying to avoid. Playing vehicle Tetris in my driveway is getting old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bam Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 We've got an A3 TDI now and are looking into a SUV to replace it and she likes the T-reg/Q7 TDI or gas, GLk450's, Tahoe/Suburbans. We need towing capacity for a boat and while I love the mileage we're getting out of the A3 I don't see the need for diesel in our next vehicle. Mainly based on price and annual miles we actually will use the vehicle. I also favor the GM as you can still get them nicely optioned (LTZ) but I predict less headaches in older/higher mileage models. Not sure what your budget is but ours isn't putting us in a new model in anything we choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't buy new - it's not about the budget I will just let someone else take the 20% depreciation driving it off the lot :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
