Default SUV's - 10K$ price range

what would you consider?

Toyota 4runner 2000+
Infinity Q4 (or pathfinder) 2002_2004
Jeep Grand Cherokee 02+
Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2001+ (kinda questionable)
Nissan Xtrerra 2002+
Honda Pilot 2001+ (kinda boring)


suggest more and talk about Pro's and Con's

QX4's had headgasket/cooling and trans issues.

I'd get the newest and lowest mileage vehicle you can. High mileage isn't a BAD thing, but it doesn't mean a good thing either. is this a commuter/ personal daily use? I really like the styling of the qx4 except for the reliability thing. The Runner is fairly easy to fix and there are tons of web diy resources so you could repairs yourself.
