XC90 with R-design! I have owned several Volvo's, I've always liked them but never been a fan of the looks. Fit and finish is just as the premium brands and Volvo comes with really comfy seats as standard. Probably not as fun as the Q7 and GL but I actually would pick the Volvo over these two since it's cheaper and better looking. Volvo is heavily underrated and they're currently stepping up their game big time.

Also, the GM vehicles are going to have a lower maintenance cost and likely be more reliable than most of the vehicles listed.

i suppose less maintenance the better meaning the better the warranty period the better.
I assume Euro vehicles have higher mileage and longer warranty?

All three of these cars share the same chassis and drivetrains and have very low maintenance costs.

Low Maintanance compared to what? To an M3? Of course. I had a 2003 Suburban. I bought it with around 35k and drive it to 98k. It almost ruined me!!!! That's why I don't like those cars. I guess they are better right now but one of the main problems was the engine was too heavy for the suspension and the thing didn't brake not to mention it was the best.....guzzler.

I think 65k miles in any of the other options listed would cost significantly more. I had an S4 and a new clutch alone was a $5k bill.

Used/new land cruiser gets my vote.


I owned
06 land cruiser
07G500
11 Gl450
14 mdx
14 x5

And now my 15 2500 ram cummins g56 is my family fortress/cruiser.
The land cruiser is pretty tight inside for the size but the reliability and suv history trumps the luxury euro SUVs and their issues
