The power, space, fuel mileage, quite comfortable ride and general liability of the Tahoe/ Yukon in my opinion are hard to beat. I did try to convince my wife to get a sequoia when we bought the 2016 but she didn’t care for it. She averages 23mpg’s and when we stayed on mostly flat ground out west got as high as 36mpg on some tanks during our trip with a 400hp v8. That’s very impressive Is that all stock? Just wondering considering the 400hp part

I think the new Kia is interesting, but I haven’t researched it. The new Telluride looks awesome. [quote=willdo22]I think the new Kia is interesting, but I haven’t researched it. Just bought my wife one and we love it so far

Just let her pick..... we want judge.... the traverse is a great SUV my wife loves hers and is trying to decide between another one or Tahoe. We have 3 young kids so that plays a big factor.

Mrs. Irish drives a Mazda CX-5. She's got 80k on it so far and has been completely 100% trouble free. Oil changes every 7,500 miles per the manual. She consistently get nearly 30 mpg. She and I both like it because it handles like a sports sedan and even with the 2.5 liter 4 cylinder it has plenty of power.
I think within the year she is going to upgrade to a newer one. Mazda has gone upscale across their line and are now on par with Lexus, Acura, Infinity, etc... as far as fit, finish and materials. The new CX-5 and CX-9 are some of the best looking SUVs out there in my opinion. You lost me at 4 cyl. I went for a 6 cyl Avalon to a 4 cyl Camry and there is no comparison.
Sig Sauer, to hell and back reliable.
Whatever suits you just tickles me plum to death.
Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?

Lexus GX are amazing, every one of them are 4x4. The used market is really fair on them too!
