The 2012 Outlander is one of a small set of crossovers offering a third-row seat.
The Dodge Journey does too, and its V-6/automatic version is a good performer, and its revamped interior is much richer than before.
The Toyota RAV4 also offers either four- or six-cylinder drivetrains and a third-row seat.
If you're willing to skip the final two seating positions, crossovers like the Chevy Equinox offer seating for five, exceptional four-cylinder gas mileage, and much better road manners than the outdated Outlander.
