I know, hahaha i feel the same way. What I really want is a Volvo XC90 but my parents told me thats outside of the budget.
Here are the ups and downs on the posted SUV models:
Montero Sport
Pros: Mid size SUV, excellent in rough terrain, smooth on rough roads, sticks to the road, feel little to no bumps at all, affordable within the 25-30k $ range.
Cons: Gas guzzler (18 mpg in city roads, 20 mpg in highway roads), needs check ups
Endeavor
Pros: Mid size SUV, smooth in roads, has similar capability with Montero Sport, more affordable than Montero Sport
Cons: Gas guzzler, brand new SUV (not as time tested as the Montero,Montero Sport, Pajero)
Outlander
Pros: Compact size SUV, great with gas (25+mpg), decent on rough terrain
Cons: Not as firm as Montero Sport, Endeavor, can feel bumps
