Howzit folks I'm in the market for a larger vehicle for all our activity needs. The budget is around 300k. On the list so far is: 2017 Hyundai Tucson 2.0l Premium Auto- Advantage: Balance of 7 year warranty and balance of 5 year service plan. 2017 Mazda CX-5 Active 2.0l - Balance of 3 year warranty New VW Caddy TSI Short wheel base: Advantage: Best fuel consumption of the three options. I am leaning towards the Hyundai Tucson because of the warranty and service plan, second would be the Caddy because it is new/demo and has great fuel efficiency and a standard 5 year manufacturing warranty. The Mazda is very nice but I am concerned that it will only have about one year of warranty left when purchased. What are your thoughts on these three vehicles? Which option would you go for? *Edit Requirements: Weekday city runner - medium to light on fuel, enough ground clearance for comfortable gravel road driving, would be used to transport two mountain bikes most weekends on a bike rack / roof rack, bluetooth with a decent sound system. Does not need to be 4x4.
