    The Best Car For Me !!!

    I have 399,980 miles on my Saturn Vue 2005. I am the only owner. I thought by having a good mechanic, is what , was keeping it in good condition. Yet its the car itself. I am about to start living in it the November to save on renting an apartment.

    Best Used Vehicle ever!

    This is 2018, I purchased my 2005 Vue in 2010 for the AWD in snow. It was excellent. Low cost, never in these 8 years have I had a problem. Tires and battery. Drove several trips from home in Idaho into Utah and back. Then moved up to WY and she is still strong, cruises along with comfort on hwy, better than my PT did. I have 108K and no intention of selling and would look for another with low miles. I LOVE my Vue!! Great stereo/comfort seats

    This little truck was perfect to get around in. It was great on gas and had plenty of space. It also drove great in the snow.

    I would buy another

    Excellent economical and roomy multi-functional vehicle. The 2.2 liter four cylinder motor never missed a beat, ran smoothly and idled as if the motor wasn't running.

    Great SUV

    I bought this car For $1500 bucks and it's great first car for anyone. I currently have 350K miles on it running strong no problems I bought it with 150k on it other than basic maintenance like brakes, oil, filters, and windshield here than there. I drive for a living and it just a great cruiser very comfortable good on gas I've gotten 32 miles to the gallon on a trip to Florida that good for a 4000lb SUV. Has some good tire wear also I've always used Yokama avid ascend series touring tires which are rated for 40k I've taken them to just about 40k. just a solid SUV all the way around. Performance is well amazing it got some power and torque I've driven many cars over my life and I got to say this Suv just goes and goes. I've taken it to 140 and it felt like I was going 70 on a freeway. my only con is that the stock radio is well bad in lack of better words. this SUV has amazing speakers all the way round pair it with a good radio and it amazing I did that. I put in a Kenwood dpx402 and if I want to I can raddle cars next to me not even joking the Stock 10inch bass does work.

    I love my VUE. It gets great gas mileage because its a 4 cylinder engine but has the comfort of an SUV. I wish it had 3rd row seating.
