Mileage: 2500 Style: XE Owned Before: This is my first time owning a vehicle of this make. Pros Nice interior, even in lower model. Lots of features. Large, comfortable interior for 7 adults.

Other Choices:

The 2008 Saturn Outlook competes with some of the roomiest carlike crossover vehicle models, which bring many of the advantages of a minivan, including fuel economy that's much better than traditional truck-based SUVs, though none of these vehicles boasts rugged off-road ability. The Ford Taurus X has a lower seating position and feels more like a wagon than the Outlook, with a lower cargo floor that's easier to access. The Taurus X also ranks very high in safety. The Toyota Highlander has recently been redesigned, with a sleeker appearance and revamped interior appointments. Then there's the Pilot, which has a simpler, boxier appearance but good performance from its V-6 powertrain. The CX-9 has a sportier look and feel, and it appeals to those who want to drive a little more enthusiastically. The Outlook's fuel economy is comparable to that of other mid-size crossover vehicles. One negative for the Outlook is pricing; the base XE model is a good value, but pile the XR with options and it can approach $45,000, which is as much as some same-size luxury-brand models.
