Choosing a three-row SUV isn't just about passenger space anymore. For many families, long-term reliability is just as important as comfort, especially when repairs on larger, more complex vehicles can quickly become expensive.

Buying a used luxury SUV can feel like a gamble. Some become expensive headaches the moment the factory warranty expires.

Lexus is Toyota's luxury division, but Toyota often builds a Lexus-badged twin to capture buyers who want that extra refinement without the higher sticker price. The Grand Highlander and the Lexus TX mimic that pattern as closely as any two vehicles have. Both are three-row midsize SUVs, both ride on a version of the same platform, and both come from the same Toyota Motor Manufacturing plant in Princeton, Indiana.

As the second quarter of the year comes to a close, sales figures from automakers have flooded in. In a turbulent year, there have been a lot of surprise wins and disappointing losses. However, in the world of luxury vehicles, there is one nameplate that continues to hold on to its dominance.

Over the last couple of years, Mazda has built a strong reputation for themselves. If you're looking for something luxurious on a budget with entertaining driving dynamics, they're an easy choice. The CX-90 is the brand's flagship, and the three-row SUV aims to push this ideology harder than any other model before it. In fact, lots of reviewers crack jokes that the Japanese brand has simply built a BMW, which is a pretty big compliment in our eyes.

The minivan isn’t the sexiest vehicle segment. You won’t impress anyone at your local Cars & Coffee event with one, and you won’t be setting any lap records. However, the minivan isn’t about horsepower or prestige, but rather about being a practical and useful vehicle for your family. And no automaker knows this better than Chrysler.

Finding the right SUV can feel impossible. There are fuel-efficient hybrids, massive family haulers, and serious off-roaders, but most buyers want something that can handle everyday life and still escape the pavement when needed.

Three-row SUVs have become increasingly expensive, with many popular family haulers now starting well above the $40,000 mark. For shoppers on a tighter budget, finding one with enough seating for the whole family often means making significant compromises or shopping used.

The Toyota Corolla dates back to 1966 and the era of the Space Race, when the compact cruiser debuted in Japan before reaching American dealerships two years later. Toyota describes the Corolla as a car that has evolved to meet changing times, guided by the principles of quality and value. It’s a formula that has worked for the automaker, since the Corolla has been one of the best-selling cars in history, with cumulative global sales now surpassing 57 million units.

Crossovers and SUVs may dominate America's roads, and automakers may be pouring billions into hybrids and electric vehicles, but none of that matters much to Mopar enthusiasts.
