My old 1990's SUV is on it's last legs. Well not really, but it's getting close and having some issues with a seat that's causing me great annoyances. I don't mind a few hundred here and there to keep a 300k car going for another year or two, but not when it's actually hurting me phyiscally to sit in it.

That said - I'm looking for an SUV. I want something interesting with room. I have dogs, hockey equipment, I do reno's here and there and treat things (or like to be able to) like a truck but I don't like pickups. That said, I'll likely have a trailer in the next 2 years.

Some SUV's I've looked at (oldest 1999, newest 2006).

Land Rover Discovery I / II
Land Rover LR3
GMC / Chev Suburban (I've always like these, seen a few 1999's that look fun)
Lincoln Aviator (stopped looking as it takes premium)
Yukon / Denali

I'm not a fan of jeeps (yj, tj, although the FJ Cruiser is neat, but not likely), don't like Escapes, Rav/CRV, the small Jimmy/Blazers were junk (except the full size blazer or old school convertable), not a fan of the Durango or...

Thoughts? Other suggestions? Comments on the vehicles I like (other than terrible on gas).
