Broadway Bargains: Used SUVs & Trucks | Merrillville, IN

What Broadway Bargains Means

Broadway Bargains is the value group inside our Merrillville inventory, named for our 5701 Broadway address — we have been serving Merrillville since 1993. It is not a price filter. It is where we put the vehicles that let you buy up a class.

The idea: more vehicle for less money
The trade-off: miles on the odometer, not compromised size or equipment
Best for: shoppers who need space, capability, or towing more than a low odometer reading

What You’ll Find in the Group

The pattern holds consistently. These are the mainstream SUVs, trucks, and minivans that shoppers normally stretch to afford, wearing prices usually attached to something two sizes smaller.

Snapshot of the Group

What We Looked At	What Was Listed
Segments	Full-size SUVs, three-row crossovers, midsize and compact SUVs, minivan, half-ton pickup
Model years	2016 through 2022
Price range*	Mid-$15,000s to just under $30,000
Odometer range	Roughly 54,000 to 115,000 miles

Inventory turns over constantly, so read that as a snapshot rather than a fixed range. What is on the lot this week will not be what is here next month.

*Prices and availability shown reflect inventory at the time of publication and are subject to change at any time. Advertised prices exclude taxes, title, license, documentation and dealer fees, and any dealer-installed options or accessories. Dealer price will vary by vehicle. The dealer sets the final price. Contact the dealership to confirm current pricing and availability on a specific vehicle.

Why the Miles Are the Whole Point

Within the same model and generation, a higher-mileage example typically lists well below a low-mileage one, and the third row, the tow rating, and the cargo space are identical either way. You are not buying less vehicle. You are buying the same vehicle later in its life.

Where to Start Based on Your Budget

These tiers are general entry points across our full inventory, not a map of this group specifically — the under-$15,000 page sits below where Broadway Bargains starts, so treat it as a wider net. Because inventory rotates, what each tier lands you shifts week to week.

Your Budget*	Start Here	Typically Lands You
Up to $15,000	Vehicles Under $15k	Compact sedans, midsize SUVs, minivans
Up to $20,000	Vehicles Under $20k	Compact SUVs, higher-mileage midsize SUVs
Up to $25,000	Vehicles Under $25k	Three-row crossovers, full-size SUVs with miles
Up to $30,000	Vehicles Under $30k	Half-ton pickups, better-equipped three-row SUVs

*Pricing tiers are shopping thresholds only. See the pricing disclaimer above — prices and availability are subject to change and the dealer sets the final price.

Buying a Higher-Mileage Vehicle With Confidence

Two Questions to Ask on Any Unit

What is the service history? Maintenance records tell you more than the odometer number by itself.
What coverage is available on this specific vehicle? Coverage varies unit to unit, so ask about the one in front of you rather than assuming.

Coverage You Can Add

Vehicle service contracts — First Automotive Standard, First Automotive Xtended Care, and Liberty Shield Coverage, covering a wide range of mechanical systems
TIREWise Plus® — road hazard tire and wheel damage, windshield chips, door dings
TheftWise and KeyWise — theft deterrence, plus key and fob replacement
TruGAP — the gap between an insurance payout and your loan balance

Full details are on our protection plans page.
