Best Compact SUVs of November 2008

With the changes in pricing there's been real shake-up in the line-up for Compact SUVs. The Mitsubishi Outlander is the only former contender to still remain in the list, thanks to its price and 5-star safety rating. The Toyota RAV4 however, has entered the competition this month thanks to a nice driveaway price. The Hyundai Tucson completes the trio being very competitively priced and feature packed.
