A minivan won’t tow my 6500# boat or travel trailer. I don’t think I could stomach the idea of a minivan.

Armada is at 8500lbs max tow ratingTowing is a must. Have my 25’ boat and plan on a TT approx 8K# next year
Bummer. I had a 95 Honda Civic with 580k+ on it and bought a Gladiator diesel. It's been in the shop for a month and a half. Should get it back next weekEx GF had a 2018 pilot elite. Shut off all the time and wouldn’t restart. Once on a busy interstate. 3 dealers never could determine what was wrong with it. She recorded on her phone the issues while they were happening. Lots of error codes but no solution. Honda America couldn’t care less. Very disappointing.
This. It might even increase in value too.Sounds like you need a 2003.5 Ford Excursion with the 7.3. Just sayin'. Those things can be super nice too.
Nissan Armada is just as old as the Toyota.I’ve been a Ford guy most my life for FS pick ups and SUV. My dang 2018 expedition is making me rethink that. Damn rear end out at 70K due to faulty ELSD locker $2300 repair. Now VCT issues $3500 but Ford knows about it and will cover 33% since I’m 86K miles. What’s next? Transmission? Turbos? What ever happened to plain V8 durable transmission and room for my family.
don’t want GM product so that leaves Toyota Sequoia (old dated design) or Nissan Armada. I need 3 rows for my boys aged 14, 11, 7, 6. Looked at Lexus GX460 but too small.
Might consider GC L.
I want a proven design with reliability. What happened to 200k relatively trouble free m
We were looking at a Model X until I rode in one. Not as roomy as advertised in my opinion. Felt more like a car than an SUVish vehicle.We're in the same boat... 3 kids, all fast approaching their teens. We actually just off-loaded my wife's x5 with the 3rd row because the used market is insane and we got a killer offer. She wanted a range rover but the 3rd row in the RRS is useless. Now she's liking the Tesla Model X. There aren't a ton of options. Everything has a turbo and a ton of electronics.
Best bang for the buck in fullsize market suv right now..Wagoneer?
