Block heater, trans heater, transfer heater. 40 gal. tank. needs new glow plugs smokes bad when you punch it.LOVE IT! Just did a 2900 mile trip from Fairbanks, AK to Battle Ground, WA. loaded with 1800 lbs of cargo. Adverage 15 mpg doing about 70mph.!

2001 Acura Mdx 144,xxx miles on the clock, great exterior/paint (adams) interior is still flawless. I love driving it everyday, very reliable and expect it to go 250-300,xxx miles

Got me an X6 35D Xdrive . It came with oem 20" wheels which looked a little clunky however a switch to BMW 21" rims resulted in a shonky drive on our bumpy lanes (it wanted to follow every camber curve and ditch it could find) so fell back on the clunky 20s.
Overall its a nice drive, fast and not too thirsty mid twenties around town and mid thirties on the m-way (if you dont spank it) . Downsides here in blighty is its width on smaller roads (though that helps stop buses or white van man attempting to intimidate you to move over). Loads of boot space despite the shallow rear hatch as its long and deep.
But I dont feel like tinkering with it and it could be expensive to fix , hence I wouldnt run one without a full BM warrenty cover, paid for it self already with a electrical (low batt) issue. That said I'd swap it for a camaro SS in a blink of an eye (even though that would be less practical).

I have a 2010 Cadillac SRX Premium 3.0L AWD. It's a great vehicle, good power, great handling, and the AWD is awesome! Not to mention the design (exterior and interior) is sweet!

my sister has a 2012 Explorer and its great. She averages around 22MPG with hers, plenty of power looks killer and its extremly comfortable. I would love to go on a long road trip in it.

I have a 2011 Chevy Tahoe LTZ and love it. I have around 23,000 miles on it and I have not had and problems with it at all. I got the 22" wheels and tires from Chevy and the tires are still about half tread. I have never gotten this many miles out of a set of times in my life. My Camaro has around 12,000 miles on it and I'm putting new tires on it next week. I think the supercharger might have something to do with the back tires wearing out faster.. LOL

Ford Escape from 2006 or 2005. Dislike it. It doesn't feel ride a "proper" SUV and it's too small to haul things of a good size. Plus changing out the spark plugs is going to be a living nightmare...

2011 GMC Yukon XL....bought it used, have had it for 8 months....love it....traded in my crew cab Silverado (hated to get rid of it) because we needed to be able to haul all 4 kids.....

It's big, comfortable, gets decent mpg on the highway (cylinder deactivation does work), has decent power (but I'm always wishing for more). I haven't done anything to mine (yet), but a little more power and a little better growl from the exhaust would be on the wishlist.

We fell in love with the LR3/4 from Land Rover. Rides like a luxury sedan, offroads like a 4x4 and seats 7 comfortably and they're not as expensive as you might think. Gas mileage is terrible though 15 city, 20 hwy.
