I kick myself for selling my Yukon Denali. We are find of looking at the Volvo XC90 for the wife but I would prefer to get a Chrysler Aspen (re-skinned Durango) because it can actually tow something and it's a bit bigger (and it's a Mopar). I would not mind getting another Yukon or Tahoe but not a new one.
We have a VW Jetta that gets 50+ MPG of diesel so we have an offset, LOL.

yea that jeep is pretty hot i like the grille and the headlights its sweet, so is it like a supercharged engine or something? it looks fast :) but i drive a range rover sport, i so wish i had a pic of it now!! i need to get one soon, cuz everyone on here posts pics of their cars so gotta get in on that lol.  but i like it its a great car.. haha yea my parents have a new yukon and they like it a lot too, its a nice car. yea i heard the volvo is nice, i think its a cute car, ive never drive none before then, ive always liked the lexus rx330, or the rx400h hybrid version is cool too, i heard one the other day and you cant even tell its running lol its silent, i test drove one of the rxs and i really liked that car too so maybe check that out since ur looking at hte volvo, cause i think they compete against each other, if im not mistaken...

yea well i like the redesign of the new yukon and tahoe, but i have yet to drive one or anything so i dont know about that aspect of it. wow that is impressive i didnt know the jetta could get such good mpg..

i havnt seen the aspen, is that a new one? ill have to look it up

We had a `99 Durango SLT Plus fully loaded that I really liked but it was the wifes daily driver and she wanted something smaller/better on gas so we went back to another Jeep-this time a Liberty which she likes a lot.The Durango had a good towing capacity but I now have my `97 Ram 2500 for that.

You must look up the Aspen. It is a beauty. I like the Lxus exterior, the int. is awkward to me. My mother just got an Avalanche and I look forward to visiting them so I can steal it from her for a night or two. It should be the same as the Tahoe, just a un-enclosed cargo area. My Yukon was a 99. I love that body best of them all. If I find one that is black or white and under 100,000 I would take it before an '01 to '06.

I just don't like the shifter location that looks like it is protruding from the dash. Is the shifter on the dash or is that a consol????
Aspen shares all mechanicals with the Durango. It just looks much better.

The lexus has the funky dash/consol shifter area. It seems like the shifter is almost located on the das itself.
BTW, I woud take either Mopar Aspen, the late 70's Aspen cars were cool as well.

I bought my wife a new SLT Durango back in 2001 and she loves it. I have tried to talk her into getting something better on gas but she won't here of it. She says it has plenty of extra room. It's a loaded 4X4 and she loves how it sets up high above everything else. Kind of like king of the road for her.
