I currently have a 1999 Suburban with 116,000 miles on it. It's starting to need some work other than routine maintenance (It made an awful sound just this morning when I started it up.) In addition to the fact that I only get about 11 mpg in town. I have 3 children (9yo, 2-4yo's) of my own, and my 2 nephews live with me. My nephews should be placed back in their home at the end of this month. My husband and I are considering adding one more child to our family, but haven't made a definite decision yet.
I have been looking at a 2005 Buick Rendezvous with 12,000 miles on it. Would you trade a 1999 Suburban for one? I need to be able to seat at least 7 people and a minivan is out of the question. From what I've read the it gets about 18/19 mpg in town, which is an improvement over what I get now. Any thoughts on the safety of the 3rd row seats in relation to how close it is to the rear glass?
