I was looking at the xterra as well and for now everything is still in the air. What i like about LR3 is the size not to big and not small. After xterra is nissan armada and that is huge to me. I have read on the forums about Lr3 and they need a lot of TLC but can be good and reliaeble. Our choice for family was volvo xc90 but in case the QX4 will give up on us or need some bigger repair we can fall back on LR3 and still go all the places we like and with volvo well we couldn't.
The LR3 is a great option of course. However, xc90 doesn't get the respect it deserves...it has a fantastic all-wheel-drive system- even better than the Subaru's. Do a couple of youtube searches and you'll see.
