Which SUVs & Trucks Last The Longest?
February 25, 2016
When purchasing a new vehicle, it's common to consider things like price, fuel economy and warranties, however, another important factor to think about is how long a vehicle is expected to last - especially if you like to keep your vehicles a long time.
Forbes recently released a list of the 10 trucks and SUVs that last the longest based on the percentage of vehicles that make it to 200,000 miles. The list includes the Ford F-250 Super Duty, Toyota 4Runner, GMC Yukon, and Chevrolet Tahoe.
If you're considering any of these long-lasting trucks and SUVs, make sure to use TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect for the best prices in your local area.

Select the vehicle you're interested in to see if there are local dealers in my network who will provide you with their best upfront price.
