Bottomline The 2008 Acura MDX has a little more passion than most larger SUVs, with no less practicality. The 2009 Infiniti FX offers a truly distinctive shape and sportscarlike acceleration. If you need to haul plywood or lots of kids, though, look elsewhere. The 2009 Porsche Cayenne isn’t as practical as other SUVs its size, but it handles like a Porsche.
