She'd like to stay away from American made, but isn't completely ruling them out. Any input or feedback on those two or advice on other options?
The 4Runner is a nice vehicle, I had one as a rental BUT It drives horrible and isn't really that high quality inside, Very comfy seats but it's not a good value next to other suv's, The Pilot is a very nice vehicle, I know several people who own them and just love them, so is it's sister car the MDX, I drove my friend Randy's as while It drives decent, it's no "Reg or X5 for sure and it has mushy brakes

The XC90 Isn't a pick of mine pre-facelift (2007) Because the interior plastics fit on a pre-2006 Ford Explorer (bleh!) and seem to peel, but again it has excellent safety features and very good comfort!

I know your anti-American, but What About an Explorer, 2006+ Their a very good all-around vehicle and has horrid resale value which equals more bang for the buck?
