Every Customer that has bought a Torrent from me have and are loving them. Keep in mind this is not a full out SUV, its actually considered a CUV (cross-over utility vehicle) so you kind of get the best of both worlds. You have a vehicle with decent room for people and cargo, a very good little V-6...

Why should I also consider these? X

The 2009 Pontiac Torrent delivers better handling than large truck-based SUVs, but it’s bested by most of the vehicles in this crowded class.

With the GXP, you'll pilot a vehicle that's a lot more agile than the typical lumbering SUV—it's happy to tackle corners at speeds that would make most of its more SUV-looking crossover competition seriously unhappy.

However, the GXP is pricey and can easily top $35,000.

The Hyundai Santa Fe is more conservative, but it has a tight, sturdy feel that TheCarConnection.com prefers to the Torrent.

The Mitsubishi Outlander has a sportier feel overall, but road noise is plentiful and it’s not very refined.

Both the RAV4 and Outlander offer small third-row seats.

The Honda CR-V is possibly the best overall package for buyers in this class; it has top-rated safety, great assembly quality, and surprisingly good performance from its four-cylinder engine.

The 2009 Dodge Journey is yet another choice, and it’s the best choice for those who want a really well-equipped vehicle.

Highlights of the Journey’s options include Sirius Backseat TV and a MyGig hard-drive entertainment system.
