For my part, I'm surprised to see on this list the GMC Acadia and the VW Touareg. I thought they were great luxury SUVs, but I was wrong.

The question now is, what used car to buy then? In case you are wondering, what are the best-used cars and SUVs you can get for less than $1000, according to Consumer Reports, please follow the link to know them.

Cars that you should already know that are crap:

- Chevy Impala
- Chrysler PT Cruiser
- Dodge Caravan
- VW Beetle in any of its models
- Saturn Outlook

It is not strange to see the VW Touareg, a beautiful luxury SUV, but like most VWs and German cars, complete crap.Best car deals and a lot of affordable pre-owned vehicle available! Love it!

Saturn Relay? Does that car exist? "When girls go wild, they show their tits. When women go wild, they kill men and drown their kids in a tub." ;D

Yep, it does exist, it is ugly and very rare to find.

Looking for some affordable car for my son!
