I purchased a used 2008 Suzuki XL7 with 112,000 miles. The car was in excellent condition and I paid $6500 Oct 2020. I drove the car for 3 weeks and less than 1000 miles when the timing chain broke. I can't afford a new engine so I lost big time!

I did a Long term test on the Suzuki XL7 it did good not bad for a SUV it .3.6 v6 did good we put 151 532 miles on it andthe Suzuki XL7 did really good in the winter and it did good the summer andi say it did better then the Chevrolet Equinox that did Long term test drive

I bought my 2008 XL 7 new, it has been a reliable car. The AWD is fantastic it will go uphill on ice no problem. Just a few minor repairs to date. It handles well and has plenty of power. The interior is in very good shape. The gas milage is fair, less than claimed. I use 90 octane non ethanol fuel and get about 23 mpg. Most of my driving is highway or freeway. The caveat with the GM 3.6 engine is that if the oil is not changed every 3000 miles with a quality motor oil the timing chain tensioners become loose and the timing chains will need to be replaced. This requires the removal of the engine. The process costs more than this car is worth. A mechanic can use a stethoscope to listen for the tensioners bouncing around. A well cared for motor should get 100000 + miles. I wax mine, the paint is fine. I'm at 73000 miles. If you are considering buying one, make sure the oil was changed regularly. I've in a hilly area with a lot of snow and this has gotten me everywhere. I plan on using it until it is to expensive to fix. It has been a good reliable crossover AWD SUV with a good amount of cargo space.
