I have test drove a bunch of these a while back and a few recently when my Dad was looking at them. The LR Discovery was a dog IMO. Needs more power. I like the looks, but the lack of power was very disappointing. Recently drove the Volvo - thats a nice car - reminds me of the X5, but it has more room. Seemed peppy enough. I like the Volvo leather seats. I also really like the Acura MDX, but it didn't handle as well as the Volvo or X5. Nice car for the money.
The new 4Runner is also pretty nice, just drove one the other day for fun and I was fairly impressed, but had a few cheap tidbits (they are always trying to drive you towards a Lexus or a port add-on).
I haven't tried the VW, but sounds like I need to. When I had my Audi allroad I was always impressed with that car when off the road so I can only imagine what the VW SUV will be like. Looks cool too. I am sure their will be an Audi version out at some point as well.
