On second thought, you may have missed my past comments because someone went around deleting many of my critical posts.
So, you are definitely on the right side of the fence regarding the absolute NEED for a proper midsize SUV, with a real 4WD system and capable towing.
I have had too many bad experiences with Dodge products in the past to ever consider them. Even if they have improved their reliability since then, I simply cannot support them in any way since they turned me off permanently years ago.

Sounds like we have had totally seperate experiences, between my falling apart GTP, my parents imploding Regal, and my brother's leaky 09 CTS, I have the same feelings for GM. Our Chrysler products have always serviced us well though with few, if any, problems. Guess it is the luck of the draw as they say. And i agree, the tech is there to give true SUVs MPG these days. Remember that Bronco concept Ford showed a few years? It was rumored with an ecobost and then they just built it? I LOVED that thing. It and the rumored F100 truck they killed, i believe were both supposed to be on the same smaller than f-150 platform. Now I have gone off topic, sorry.
