welcome to the forum.
how will you use the bike? long distance commuting, touring, short city rides? my choice would be Trek (i am also attached to the brand more, so it is a bit biased opinion) due to its versatility or all-around capability, with this Trek you can bike daily and take it out for multiple day rides. suspension adds a bit of extra weight, but it should be relatively easy to fix and maintain (the used bike factor). Voltarre is more sporty and speedy compared to Trek's comfort position, so that is your choice if you want the speed on the tarmac and do not plan to have crazy mileage or have touring trips etc.
