I would vote for Hyundai VERACRUZ !!!
 
I bought one recently after LOT of research and homework. It is the best SUV with 7 seats with all the luxuries you can expect on a luxury cross over for a reasonable price. The comfort of the 3rd row seat and easy access to the 3rd row played a major role in my choosing VERACRUZ and ofcourse its charming look and price tag.
 
CX-9 is over priced in my opinion i cant afford it. acadia/outlook looks good but again over priced and i would not buy a car from a bankrupted company.

Well said. I have an 08 model, though now wishing I had the AWD version after driving in snow today, can you say slip and slide? I eventually just turned off the ESC so I could actually get moving. It's the tires, not the vehicle though, that is the problem, once moving, it drives very nice in snow. I am 5'8 and 240 pounds, and can sit OK in the 3rd row. The only thing lacking is room behind the third row seats when they are up, something I knew about when I bought it, but I just could not bring myself to paying an extra $3-4K for an Outlook for a little extra room and not get all the options I got with the VC. I have 19000 miles on it, and aside from the AM filter on the radio going *poof* and having to have it replaced, it has been trouble free, and believe me, the radio is non mechanical so it WAS a non issue, I have had top of the line after market radios go *poof*!

As for the tribeca....dont do it. Bought an 06 in 2010 and its a piece at 74,000 miles. Really nice looking and feeling but total lemon on the inside. Right now I have timing belt issues, electrical issuses and more. To keep the car I have to dump about 4000 into it, and I never missed a maintainance call. I have a friend with an 07 and she says the same. Move on and dont waiste your money.
