Other Choices:

The slow-selling Chrysler Pacifica, which has been discontinued after this model year, has been the Taurus X's closest rival, though the Pacifica has slower acceleration and doesn't handle any better than the 2008 Ford Taurus X; it's also won top crash-test results across the board. At the back, the Taurus X's third row is roomier, with easier access. The Outlook is one of a group of new GM crossovers that includes the Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia; it performs well and has a more refined ride than the Taurus X, though it feels smaller inside than the Pacifica and Taurus X, and its third row is tight. The same goes for the Honda Pilot, which is also rated well for safety and has a tight third row of seating. Some may find the Pilot's faux-rugged, boxy appearance alluring.
