25k to spend on used SUV... you pick?

GF wants a new car, and has vetoed anything that is not huge. I am thinking like maybe a Lexus RX300 or Tahoe. Actually think like 30k retail since i have lots of car dealer buddies. She wants an Infinity FX35 but I can't swing it. Thoughts?

SUV's are dumb, ugly and a waste of money.

If you do get one, make sure you pimp that sucker out with lots of American flags, support our troops magnets, and a soccer ball magnet.

my rationalization is that I am afraid of her getting hit by somebody in one, so I'd prefer her to be in one also.

That's some damn good rationalization! Are you afraid to let her cross the street by herself? Does she need your help to go potty too?

rx300s are fantastic vehicles and they still treat used owners like royalty at the dealerships

Or so she can kill somebody while talking on the phone/sipping her latte/putting on make up.......
You're paying for it, get what you want or drop the GF.

yukon denali - you should be able to get an 03 w medium miles around there. i've had a few of them and they are fantastic.

real men don't drive rx300s. they're minivans.

a yukon on 26s is obviously the right answer.
