Alright, guys, so I’ve been meaning to write about this for a while now, and since we’re talking about a 4 door SUV, I figured, why not now? I had this old clunker, you know, the one that makes you pray every time you turn the key. It was time for an upgrade, and I was dead set on getting something that could handle my weekend adventures and the occasional family road trip. So, a 4 door SUV seemed like the perfect fit.

First thing I did was hit up the internet, naturally. I spent hours, and I mean hours, scrolling through reviews, comparisons, and those fancy 360-degree views of every SUV you could imagine. I jotted down some notes, made a few spreadsheets—yeah, I’m one of those guys—and narrowed it down to a few models that seemed promising. You know, the usual suspects like the RAV4, and even the Kia Telluride caught my eye.
Next up was the test drive phase. I visited a bunch of dealerships, which, let me tell you, is an experience in itself. Sales guys giving you the spiel, trying to upsell you on every feature under the sun. But I stayed focused, tried out the driver’s seat, fiddled with the controls, and took each car for a spin. I really paid attention to how they handled the road, the noise levels, and how comfortable those seats were going to be on long drives. There were few options to choose, including Active, ST-Line, ST, and Platinum.
After all that driving around, I finally made my choice. It wasn’t easy, but I went with a model that really impressed me—not going to name names, but let’s just say it had that “Standard Symmetrical AWD + 8.7 of ground clearance” that the salesman kept bragging about. And it wasn’t just the specs; it felt right, you know? Like, I could see myself and the family piling in for a trip, no problem.
Then came the fun part—paperwork. Ugh. It’s like they make it complicated on purpose. But, I got through it, signed on the dotted line, and bam, I was the proud owner of a shiny new 4 door SUV. I even customized it a bit, added some accessories, and made it my own.
Since then, I’ve taken it on a few trips, and man, it’s been great. Smooth ride, plenty of space, and it’s handled everything I’ve thrown at it. From city driving to those rougher roads up in the mountains, it’s been a champ. I had a tough time choosing between the “King of SUVs”- the Land Cruiser, and the cool and contemporary Urban Cruiser Hyryder.
So, that’s my story of getting a 4 door SUV. It was a bit of a process, but totally worth it. If any of you are thinking about making the leap, just do your research, test drive a bunch, and don’t let those sales guys sway you too much. Go with your gut, and you’ll find the right one for you. Trust me, that feeling of driving off the lot in your new ride? It’s pretty awesome.
Hope this little rundown helps someone out there. If you’ve got your own SUV buying stories, drop them in the comments. Would love to hear about your experiences!
