Default SUV Options

I'm trying to keep it under 10 grand total

Opinions??

I was swayed towards a 96 4 runner, 99 rodeo aka passport, 96-98 explorers.

HELP!

BTW. I'm putting my car in the trader soon.. Hopefully I can sell it for more than I owe and put the rest down on something nice. I'll be switch out the suspension so I'll have a camber kit and the agx/gc combo to sell and type r sway and axle back muffler .

Hopefully thats fund the new stereo tint and alarm on the suv.

Back away from the Exploder...those things are seriously piles of shit!

Out of all of those I would pick the 4 Runner for reliability, build, looks and all around usability.

Rodeo...uhhhh no Isuzu has tranny probs with them as well as constant engine issues and they are very different from the Passport in overall quality of build...they may look similiar but are very different.b
