She only has one kid...he'* 2.....she'* basically going to use it for runs to the store like BJ'* or something where she'll need some good cargo space. The 4-runner is basically out cuz her friend has one and so do the neighbors. And her husband doesn't like any of the Jeep products....and minivans are just out..lol. So i guess its between the MDX and the x5....i like the x5....cuz i'm biased

Cayenne!!! Turbo if you can...its ugly as sin, but totally hauls!! My brothers girlfriends sister has one..shes 18...totally ticks me off but whatever, its an amazing performer.

VW Touareg, same VW chassis as the Cayenne, excellent road manners and capable off road. VW just needs to get off their backsides and offer the diesel here. 300+hp, 500+ ftlb.

Husband doesn't like Jeep products?! Get new husband JK.
What about Nissan Murano it'* Infinti sister?

I would go for a Suburban LTZ money no object. (The LTZ trim is new for 2006 and includes 20inch wheels, Z60 springs and other sporty goodies including leather and heated seats... Oh and its a half-ton model with AWD (Silverado SS) and 6.0L 335hp Vortec (Max) V8! I'd hit it with the GM large truck employee pricing for 2006 they only cost like 42K! (With everything) Or a Torrent but I would wait until the 3900 comes out in it with the Honda 5spd. auto that thing would go pretty good. Out of those I like the MDX my buddy has one rides nice, drives good and looks nice plus its a Honda! I try to stay away from Toyota products... *Long story but I love Hondas/Acuras!*

INFINITI QX56!!!

SUV, with todays gas prices, I don't know.
