Just curious if either of you have test driven the Acura RDX? It isn't as large inside as the MDX or the Toyota, and it's certainly not equal to a mini van for inside space, but to me, it drove like a sports car. My good friend owns a Toyota Highlander, and to me there is no comparison to the RDX when it comes to handling, brakes, acceleration and a general feeling of refinement. To me, the RDX was hands-down the winner. The trade-off is that it's not a 7-passenger vehicle.
