Hi all, my son just completed his 3rd year at West Point as a cadet and is now allowed to have a car with him on campus. He has always driven one of our other cars until he started at school so he saved his money as he earned it from various summer jobs. Now is is starting to look at vehicles with a focus on SUV's so that he will have storage room in the car as he travels from one military base to another over the next 5 to 6 years. So, he is wanting to have a reliable SUV that gets good mileage but doesn't spend alot of time in the shop being worked on. He has put a cap of $25,000 all in for the purchase and wants to get about 24 or 25 mpg's combined for whatever he buys. Up till now, he has driven a CX-5, Highlander, X3, and XC90. He did look at the X1 (too small inside) and X5 (not comfortable). We have both been looking at CR for reviews and he was frustrated that the XC90 was rated poorly for reliablilty when that was actually the one he thought drove the best. I had him look at the CR-V but he didn't like the dash layout at all. Any thoughts from experience with these or other SUV's would be helpful. Thanks for any information you pass along.
