The wife's 4runner is nearing the point of needing replacement. It's a 2000 with 180k on it.
I am very torn on what to replace it with.
On one hand, a TDI Touareg or Q7 would be great as it could pull medium loads easily...these are getting harder to find with lower miles for not stupid money.
Same thought applies to newer 1/2 ton CC GMC or maybe diesel Canyon. But, a used GM diesel out of warranty bothers me.
The safe decision is to buy her a new 4runner, with as little as she drives it'll last 10-15 years. But they can't pull as much as the TDI stuff/1/2 ton trucks.
On the other hand, my Passat is not a very comfortable road car so also eyeing TDI A6's.
