Still on the fence about this vehincle.

Source: MSN Autos

Pros:A very sharp looking vehicle. For a compact SUV has good amount of leg room. I love the swing open lift gate, compared to the swing up gates that most SUV's have. It has a clearance from the ground that is comparable to most full size SUV's, unlike most compact SUV's. Ride is smooth, sits high for good visualization of the road.

Other Choices:

Like all of these compact utility vehicles, the 2008 Toyota RAV4 offers a choice of four-cylinder or V-6 powertrains (except the Honda), with front- or all-wheel drive. Where they differ is that they each have different ways of prioritizing between carlike on-road handling and off-road ability. For instance, the Ford Escape is styled like a more traditional SUV, but its carlike underpinnings help it handle and perform quite well, despite its aging design. The Honda CR-V is an excellent, very space-efficient design with plenty of room for five, though it’s not much fun to drive, nor does it have any significant off-road ability. The Hyundai Tucson bears an older design that doesn’t perform as well as its most updated peers; it also feels smaller inside. The new Vue that’s been introduced is much improved, especially inside, with a fresh design. And the Mitsubishi Outlander, like the RAV4, has a very small third-row seat, for those who want two extra positions for small children on occasion; although it doesn’t match the RAV4’s V-6 engine for power, the Outlander V-6 feels very sporty behind the wheel, with good handling, though its ride is firm and somewhat noisy.
