Just know what you're getting before you buy (read: Research a lot and test drive the hell out of one). And don't just drive it around the block. Make sure the salesman lets you "take it for a spin" for a couple of hours, and drive it on whatever terrain you'll be driving it on regularly.

If you spend most of your time on the freeway in "cruise," take it out for a 30-40 mile "spin" on the freeway. If you regularly drive through mountains, make sure you pull a really good hill or two on that test drive.
