What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Chevrolet Tahoe
| Price of the Chevrolet Tahoe: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
The incentives drove down the purchase price condsiderably. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
there is a lot of wiggle room, catch the dealer at the right time and you will get a great deal |
| 2003 | 4dr SUV 285-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
Better deals on a used Tahoe. |
| Price of the Chevrolet Tahoe: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
The Tahoe is simply priced $10,000+ more than the Aspen, yet I believe I would find both as useful and enjoyable as the other. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV, ext. 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
With a sticker price of $45K, the price for this or any vehicle that can act as a tow vehicle may be beyond the reach of most and especially the large family for which the vehicle would be most functional. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Kia Soul
| Price of the Kia Soul: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I was planning to buy a stripped down Soul, but for grins asked the dealer what a fully-equipped model would run. When he came back with the number, I was pleasantly surprised and bought the tricked out Exclaim model. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Comfort for four American-sized humans; room for a little luggage; pretty much any common option you could want (minus maybe heated seats and mirrors malice distinctive styling; and excellent fit and finish for around $16,000? Yes, please. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
For what you get, you feel like you should be paying over $20k for it all. I felt like I was robbing the dealer. Kia has come a long way. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Affordable |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The base price in the 13teens and a well apointed car in the 15-16teens make It a great option to own over an expensive lease. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
its great price with good financing |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I was able to get the Soul + model with the options I wanted for sub 17k price tag. This workes well because I wanted to buy and not lease a vehicle and the payments do not break they bank. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The Soul is priced much less than comparably equipped cars from other manufacturers. Kia has a niche in the "less is more" market. I have found the initial quality of this car impressive. I hope it continues to impress. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Ton of value for the MSRP, when compared with Scion XB & Others |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Payments under $350 for all the things I want in a car except fog lights |
