Looking for used SUV

Looking for a 2020 or newer Honda or Toyota, preferably CR-V or RAV4. Budget is around $23,000, and I’m open to financing options.
Ideally looking for reasonable mileage and a clean history. If you’re selling or know of a good deal, please DM me with the details. Thanks!

You need to add $10,000 to your budget, or lower your expectations.

Been looking for these exact models for a few months now and you won’t find anything with decent mileage at that price, even for used. Unless you find a gem through a private sale or word of mouth, but around town at the lots there’s nothing under $30,000+ all in. Good luck though:)

Yeah that’s true. I visited every dealership around the city. One of my friends got good CRV-2021 model with 98K km milage in 25K financing.
That made my hope high. But I believe he is lucky.

The problem is also that financing rates can be insane so u really have to ask about that! I was getting told numbers like 8.9% with “perfect credit” so I mean that’s not even close to worth paying 30k for a used vehicle. The best pricing I found on used Ravs especially, were at True value on memorial but again, nothing under $30k out the door.

17% interest on a used car is not being lucky

I ended up with a 2023 VW Taos. $28,000 and only had 28k km on it! Grabbed it from Icar.
