The right SUV can make or break a driver. For a commuter, an SUV can have a sporty feel that gives them a rush when they're on the highway. For parents, an SUV can provide the space and safety systems that make life with kids less stressful. Adventurers also thrive with the right SUV, as some offer superior traction and suspension along with the ability to tow plenty.
When it comes to SUVs, it's tough to beat the bowtie brand, which is why we're proud to present used SUVs for sale here at LaFontaine Chevrolet Dexter. Whether you're looking for a smaller SUV, such as the Trax, or a massive three-row model, like the Tahoe, we'll have you covered. Our used inventory is high-quality, so you'll always get excellence at a great value.
The used market has many advantages, first and foremost of which is affordability. However, you also get to select from a much wider variety of styles and models than if you only stick with new vehicles. You can even have access to models that've been discontinued, such as the Chevy Sonic. We always encourage our customers to consider buying pre-owned, and the following are a few highlights.
Chevy SUVs That Empower Commuters
A used Chevy Trax might be just what you need if you're looking for a reliable ride to and from work each day. The Trax is a spiffy subcompact SUV with a hint of intimidation in its fascia. Its sense of steering is smooth if you're roaring down the highway to Ann Arbor or Detroit. It also comes with ample cargo room if you need to load up for a quick weekend trip by yourself or with a pal. Better yet, the Trax is renowned for its affordable starting price, which only gets lower when you purchase it used. For a single commuter, a Trax is a real gift.
If you have concerns about commuting in winter weather (which is more than understandable considering Michigan's snowstorms and icy roads), then you should take a used Trailblazer for a spin. This subcompact SUV is similar to the Trax, but it can come with all-wheel drive (AWD). AWD ensures power is distributed to all tires, providing better traction and control when the weather isn't to your liking. With this better sense of command, you'll feel like bad weather is barely a blip on the radar.
Chevy SUVs Fit for Growing Families
The Chevy Equinox, along with its electrified sibling, the Equinox EV, is a famed family SUV. It is a roomier vehicle than many others in the compact class, with a back row that can fit both kids and adults. It has an elegant exterior that makes sure you look and feel your best, no matter where you're pulling up, be it to a family party or a fancy restaurant in Detroit. The Equinox has excellent infotainment tech, all accessible via an easy-to-use touchscreen, so every trip is a blast.
Larger families also have a lot to gain from Chevy's diverse lineup of SUVs, as the brand offers several three-row vehicles, so everyone can come along for the trip. Friends and families alike will be able to climb aboard for your next road trip across the state or for your trip to one of the Great Lakes.
Take the Chevy Traverse, an excellent option for those seeking a used three-row model. This SUV has a very affordable starting price (even more when considering a pre-owned one) while offering something many competitors don't: a third row that doesn't squash folks over five feet tall. You can rest assured that adults will have no problem fitting back there! Plus, not only do you have cargo room, but you can also tow, as properly equipped Traverses can pull up to 5,000 lbs.
We should also take a moment to highlight the brand's safety systems, which are standard across its lineup. Through the Chevy Safety Assist suite, you get lane-keeping alerts, forward collision warnings, and front pedestrian braking. A Chevy can even begin braking for you if it senses an imminent collision; this can be the difference between a collision and a near miss. In our experience, the Chevy Safety Assist suite is a key reason families love the brand's SUVs.
Chevy SUVs Designed for Adventure
The full-size Chevy Tahoe and Suburban are excellent options for large families, but those who crave adventure will find plenty to love about them, too. Getting one that's used might be a very wise investment!
The Tahoe and Suburban both have super spacious cabins. For families, this is great, of course, but for adventurers, you can bring a lot more gear or equipment along for the ride. How so? Because you can decline the two rear rows and have a massive amount of room to store items. The seats are easy to manipulate, too, so you won't find changing the layout annoying.
These SUVs are also ready to show off serious muscle. Some older Suburbans can tow up to 8,300 lbs, and some older Tahoes can tow up to 8,600 lbs. That means these SUVs are outpacing even certain pickup trucks in capability! You can easily transport a camper, ATVs, canoes, or any other equipment that will make your weekends a lot more memorable. Plus, on a more mundane but still important note, this capability means you wouldn't have to rely on professional movers, and it wouldn't make bringing in the lawnmower for repair an issue.
The Suburban and Tahoe are also ready to tackle off-road areas, as both can come in the Z71 trim, making your SUV ready to tackle any trail. With this trim, you get off-road-friendly tires, skid plates, and better traction and control. Dirt, mud, and rocks are no problem, as these SUVs live for rough ground!
For Michigan drivers, these SUVs are also great if we have a bad winter (which, let's face it, is basically a normal winter for us). Even if you're not someone who has a desire to roar through mud, you'll still appreciate knowing you have a vehicle that can get you to the supermarket when weather conditions are unpleasant. That reliability is something you won't take for granted.
Invest in a Quality Pre-Owned Chevy SUV
A used SUV will treat you well—not only because you won't have to pay as much, but because, thanks to how many options you'll have, you'll be able to find one that matches all your specifications. In fact, you may find the process easier than if you limited yourself to only new models. By going with an older model, you will have your wallet thanking you, and you won't feel like you're sacrificing features to get behind the wheel.
We have a large selection of used SUVs here, and our sales team will be happy to fill you in on all the details. We're well-versed in the cabins and capabilities of all our used Chevys, as well as driving in the area, so we can advise you based on the roads you travel on. Then, we'll set you up with financing and make sure your used SUV stays serviced thanks to our talented mechanics.
All you need to do is tell us what you're looking for, and let us handle the rest!
