Me and my wife are looking for a suv. Needs to be newer than 04. So what do you guys think? I want to find something that is 4x4, not v8, can hold 5 people comfortably, I would like to be able to lift it slightly to clear like 32s or so. I want to get a 4runner but she wants to see what else is out there but I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to suv's. So any comments are more than welcome!!!

You kinda limit us here when you say no to a Toyota.



Just say no to Ford

YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE
AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU HAVE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

I usetacoulda thought the same, but they're finally starting to grow on me a little.  I just wish they came with a diesel and/or v8 option.

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

Next best thing to a Runner..... a Pathfinder :yupyup: I :love: :love: my Pathfinder. It gets decent gas mileage, and it is sooo comfy.  I got a little '01, but they make them past '04 too :yupyup:

doesnt want a v8? that takes out the expedition, the explorer, the yukon, the burban, the pathfinder armada, the seqouia, durango, and probably a few others as well.......



looks liek there arent too many choices.......

looking for a cute ute? rav4, highlander, subaru (awd), escape, edge, xterra, 4runners (although some had v8s)

i dont know that any of the cute utes will comfortably hold 5 adults.... maybe 5 people, but......
