Wife wanted something that wasn't too big, in either the garage or the
wallet.

She didn't feel comfortable driving the normal SUV's, and liked smaller
footprint of the mini-suv.  We drive the Honda, Toyota, and the Suzuki. 
The Suzuki won...has a real frame, real-time on demand 4WD (even 4L), a
v-6.  Even tho' the HP ratings weren't that much different, the GV
seemed mroe powerful than the Honda and Toyota.

Ant the price....$20,450...less than the Honda, and much less than the
Toyota.  11 months and 23,000 miles later, it has been a great car/suv.

Best of all, the wife feels safe in it,and she like to drive it.  It's a
good thing she can't drive a stick, when I finish the B, she won't be
able to drive it.
