SUV Operating Costs
Can you imagine paying $5,000 - $6,000 for a new bumper? A June 1999 study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety found that some popular SUV bumpers incur expensive damage in impacts at little more than "walking speed" or five miles per hour. The Institute conducted a series of four crash tests at five miles per hour - front and rear flat-barrier impacts plus two localized impacts, front-into-angle-barrier and rear-into-pole. In other words, standard parking lot accidents. The Jeep Grand Cherokee cost $5,107 to repair after those tests. The Mitsubishi Montero Sport cost a whopping $6,282 to fix.
