Is the vehicle market going to crash in the next few months? I really don't want to buy anything if I could avoid it. But I'll likely be able to survive a new vehicle one way or the other. The alternative not so much.

So I know Hyundsi and Kia are the greatest things ever in the eyes of most on this form. But I don't like direct injection turbo 4's and excess tech in a vehicle. Would prefer 5000 pound towing capacity at minimum. Towing with a hybrid isn't really something I'm too keen on either. Any recommendations for under 70 thousand? Which honestly seems absurd...but again much cheaper than divorce and more comfortable than living by myself in a 20 year old Silverado.
Honda Pilot

3.5L v6
5000lb towing capacity
can go as cheap as $55,000, full load Black Edition is $66,000

I have a 25 BE Pilot and it is an amazing vehicle, reliable, great for 2 kids and looks sharp.
