In a society where everything is expensive, one of the key areas in which you can save money is by changing which car you drive. Rather than spending even $20,000 or so on the cheapest car in the US, you could always switch gears and find yourself an ultra-cheap used SUV for closer to the $5k mark. At that price, you’ll be spending just a 10th of the average value for brand-new mid-size SUVs in the US, illustrating the kind of cash you’ll retain.
