Suzuki Grand Vitara Usados en Venta

My vehicle is a 1999 Suzuki Grand Vitara that I bought as a used car and have had for 4 plus years now. I like how easy it is to maintain and use my car. I live in an place where snow is common in the winter and I find that having my (particular) car with its 4 wheel drive makes my life that much easier. I like the fact that it runs very well and is sturdy for its age. The only flipside would be that finding parts for it or getting it serviced is sometimes tricky as there are not many people familiar with my particular make of car. The car is engineered very well and I like its fuss free handling. I also get great mileage out of it.

I initially did not know much about this brand, but after ten years of ownership, I have a new attitude about Suzuki. I have taken this vehicle across the United States, from Florida to California, and have put almost 300k miles on it with minimal cost and no major repairs. It has a strong v6 engine and four-wheel independent suspension. I got the sport package because it came with an automatic transmission and two-wheel drive.

I purchased my Suzuki the same year I married my husband (back in 2010). I had just totaled my last vehicle and needed a vehicle to help me accommodate and shuttle my new husband and his daughter. I had $12K in my pocket and needed a vehicle for just my tiny family of three persons (and maybe one more soon), and one that had good gas mileage. At the time I believed that my Suzuki would meet those qualifications. It was compact, had advertised good gas mileage, and I was able to purchase it without a car payment. Win-win! Almost the day after we drove the vehicle off the lot I began to experience issues, though. The car constantly needs oil, the A/C has needed topping off twice, the headlight is always out, and the gas mileage does not live up to all that was promised. Now that my family has grown to five members, the car is too cramped to consider keeping it any more. I am hoping in my next vehicle to get something larger with better gas mileage.
