What is a good dependable SUV?

Im about to turn 17 and I have just saved enough money for a vehicle. I have about 4500 to spend. I need something with 4 or all wheel drive because I live in Colorado. something that is very dependable and reliable because I cant afford to constantly be putting money into it.
I was thinking about a 2000 ford explorer or a 2000 land rover discovery. if anyone has any experiences with these cars or would like to suggest a another car let me know. Thanks!

Neither of those is a very good choice. Your best bets are smaller SUVs with better gas milage. Honda CRV and Toyota RAV4 are much better vehicles

never get a landrover. Parts are very expensive if anything breaks. And things break all the time. Car has a lot of problems. Trust me don't go landrover. And any suv for 4.5k is gonna do bad on gas almost. I reccomend getting a subaru since they are very good engineered. Maby a honda crv. Trust me buddy u want good mpg if you are only 17

I have a 25k car infiniti m35x awd and the thing drinks gas, but i wouldn't have got it if i couldn't pay for it. cheap suv around that price are usually gmc yukons or w.e they are.. good luck
