Question about most practical vehicle.
Hi!
I am reaching a point where I badly need a new vehicle. I can afford it, so that is not the issue. My question is about what the most practical vehicle type would be.
I am looking at either a truck or an SUV-type of vehicle. The trade offs are that the truck has an open, large bed and higher towing capacity but much lower MPG but the Hyundai Santa Fe I am looking at gets almost 30mpg and still has a good bit of cargo space with seats down and has a 5000 lbs. towing capacity. Some of the properties Iwork with are as far as 2 hours away so I sometimes drive a lot. I figure the Santa Fe makes more sense, yes? I could buy a trailer for moving appliances and such when necessary? Or do trucks just end up being more practical in the end?
Sorry if this is a ridiculous question. Just will be a big investment for me so I want it to make sense.
Thank you!!
