Looking for a car to inspire adventure on the open road for spring break and beyond? Edmunds has gathered a few picks that can handle rocks, ruts and the highway rest stops with ease. For around $30,000 or less, you can find a used Honda Ridgeline, Jeep Wrangler, Lexus GX 460 or Subaru Outback that will have you mapping out your next adventure.
This photo provided by Edmunds shows a 2018 Jeep Wrangler. More so than most vehicles, the Wrangler is pretty much synonymous with adventure. Wranglers from 2018 and older are usually priced under $30,000. This photo provided by Lexus shows a 2017 Lexus GX 460. The GX is more capable off-road than the typical luxury SUV, and 2017 or older models can usually be purchased for under $30,000. This photo provided by Edmunds shows a 2020 Subaru Outback.
Look for: You can find plenty of four-door 2017-2018 Wranglers for $30,000 or less. The 2018 Wrangler is the first year of the latest generation and offers improved comfort and tech compared to 2017 or earlier models. Both are appealing, but the consumer reviews on Edmunds are more favorable to the 2017 Wranglers.The GX 460 is a darling of overlanders, enthusiasts who mix off-road adventure with camping.
Look for: Most 2014-2017 GX 460 models hit the sweet spot of price and mileage. Overall, the GX 460 was essentially unchanged during this span. The high mileage of these older GXs may scare you, though parent company Toyota’s record for reliability offers some comfort.If you don’t need the Wrangler’s boulder-dashing brawn but still want trail capability and a smooth highway ride, the Subaru Outback offers a more civilized option.
Look for: Start your search with the latest Outback generation that debuted in 2020. You can find 2021 or 2022 Outbacks for less than $30,000 too. The Outback’s base engine gets impressive fuel economy but is pretty slow. Look for an Outback with the optional turbocharged engine if you want more punch.The Ridgeline is the truck for people who don’t buy trucks. That’s because the Ridgeline wraps its versatile truck attributes in a package that handles and rides more like a crossover SUV.
Look for: Go for a 2017 or newer Ridgeline. That’s the first year of the latest generation that has a longer cargo bed, a nicer cabin and more powerful V6. There are front-wheel-drive Ridgelines but get all-wheel drive for maximum towing capability.It’s not too early to start thinking about spring road trips in an affordable adventure mobile. Whether you prefer back roads, open roads or dirt roads, there are great used options waiting to take you there.
