    In the market and it’s between the Telluride and the Pilot. Hard to decide between more lux or proven reliability



  2. E Johnson on July 11, 2023 at 3:06 am

    I like your reviews, but yeah Kia and Hyundai have a lot of gimmickry features that will break down in the long run. It’s the Honda Pilot for me. Honda’s ergonomics, easy to use controls, quality soft touch plastic and solid reliability make it a no brainer for me.



  3. Carlos Fernandez on July 11, 2023 at 3:07 am

    No creo que paladise y kia sean los 2 primeros,para nada,muy superficial el análisis



  4. Dreamcatcher_11_ on July 11, 2023 at 3:08 am

    The CX-60 3.3L straight six diesel mild hybrid that is sold in Europe gets 60mpg



  5. BonezWorld on July 11, 2023 at 3:08 am

    One factor you guys didn’t take into consideration is the safety concern of how close some of these third rows are to the rear windshield. Some of these are absolute death traps for children if the vehicle gets rear-ended.



  6. Ahmed Abdul on July 11, 2023 at 3:08 am

    What about GMC acadia denali ??



  7. Toni Morro on July 11, 2023 at 3:11 am

    Gentlemen can you tell me which of these ten has the quietest ride. I commute 160 miles each day. I need a quiet ride.



  8. jeejay98 on July 11, 2023 at 3:11 am

    I applaud that you guys got the privilege to review models to try but I was wondering how the third row feels? Having to demo for an all adult passengers and not just reading through specs. How comfy to get through in and out? Are your knees up to your shoulder when you seat on the third row? Reliability? Safety?



  9. Hangkyu Bak on July 11, 2023 at 3:12 am

    Pilot is better?
    Mdx is better?



  10. Ss W on July 11, 2023 at 3:14 am

    Say price ranges



  11. Muhammad farhan naufal 25 on July 11, 2023 at 3:15 am

    11:05 2row honda pilot
    15:00 2row hyundai palisade



  12. Terence on July 11, 2023 at 3:19 am

    Nice video, but I think you guys should have factored in IIHS or NTHSA crash test results and reliability. Some of the vehicle’s you guys chose did very poorly in these tests, and families will want to know that.



  13. Jak260 on July 11, 2023 at 3:21 am

    Pathfinder Platinum is the best we got it last month



  14. jose flores on July 11, 2023 at 3:21 am

    Explorer has a horrible 3rd road size… how Is the treverse in 10th



  15. TJ Y on July 11, 2023 at 3:25 am

    The Grand Highlander is going to be top of the list for sure



  16. Abdullah Abu Tarboush on July 11, 2023 at 3:27 am

    I am about to have Telluride, still I need ur help to know more about its reliability……



  17. Sugar weasel dad on July 11, 2023 at 3:28 am

    If you pick those two pieces of garbage as 1 and 2 you dont know cars there both terrible in quality and engine longevity. And the best one they have the worst security systems and are the easiest to be stolen . Ill hard pass on those



  18. T Jackson on July 11, 2023 at 3:30 am

    Hello. Do you have a review of the Buick Enclave Avenir?



  19. Volvy S on July 11, 2023 at 3:30 am

    Thanks for the video, why is Acura MDX not part of the 10 best?



  20. Marc Olivier Mottet on July 11, 2023 at 3:30 am

    No CX-90?



  21. Kroatoan Eight-Four on July 11, 2023 at 3:32 am

    1 pro and 1 con could have helped why they are ranked that way. Like, Durango with the power but platform is old. CX-9 is sporty but space is tight. But good video nonetheless.



  22. mnn1265 on July 11, 2023 at 3:33 am

    Would be nice to see comparison of gas mileage, cost to own, pricing, and expected cost to own and other criteria that real people use to purchase something this expensive. Sure, luxury is fine and great but people really want to stretch their very hard earned dollars out into the future and get the best value for their money based on their needs. Safety in a family car is really critical too.



  23. Redhood on July 11, 2023 at 3:33 am

    Jeep and Explorer are 2 of the most unreliable SUV’s.



  24. JayFromOuterspace on July 11, 2023 at 3:34 am

    I have a jeep gc. I hate it.



  25. Andres Mattos on July 11, 2023 at 3:35 am

    Too many buthurt comments cuz the hyundai is the best



  26. Ray Jensen on July 11, 2023 at 3:37 am

    What is it with all of you reviewers completely forgetting the Subaru Ascent? I have a 2021 Limited, and thank God I didn’t listen to the reviewers on this one! Over 30,000 miles on it…..bulletproof……solid…..quiet…..and a super safe car. What’s up with leaving Subaru out?



  27. Giordane Simões on July 11, 2023 at 3:39 am

    Palisade 1st place? HUmmm….it is a nice car, but the engine? Very old school (engine) in the way it is built and its parts. Not alone the recalls. I don’t know. It is, at the end of the day, a tough decision!! Thanks for sharing those information with us !!!



  28. bigbad2001 on July 11, 2023 at 3:39 am

    The Mazda was near the end of this list??? Behind some Mopar options? Sorry but ya lost me there.



  29. Joseph Blea on July 11, 2023 at 3:40 am

    When I traded my Wrangler in, I already knew I wanted 1 of 2 of the most reliable brands of either Honda or Toyota and ended up with the brand new Pilot Trailsport and I love it! I feel comfortable knowing Hondas will out last most other car brands!



  30. Agustin Adrian Uy on July 11, 2023 at 3:42 am

    How would you compare the Q7 to the new Pilot? In terms of space



  31. Fahad on July 11, 2023 at 3:42 am

    Go Palisade!! Gonna be buying that soon they hooked it up with alot of good stuff that Pilot just looks very boxy and ugly ill take massage seats and features over durability definitely dont wanna drive same car for more than 5-7 years



  32. James Franklin on July 11, 2023 at 3:42 am

    Is the GMC Yukon too big and expensive?



  33. Muhammed Bappa on July 11, 2023 at 3:43 am

    Nothing like the Honda pilot to me is simply the best



  34. Allrounder on July 11, 2023 at 3:44 am

    Say away from Hyundai and Kia if you want long term reliability and resale value



  35. Omar Robinson on July 11, 2023 at 3:44 am

    My top two would have been The Grand Cherokee and the Durango



  36. Imran Rashid on July 11, 2023 at 3:46 am

    No Subaru Ascent? Wow. Did you forget or didn’t even make the consideration list?



  37. time.winding on July 11, 2023 at 3:46 am

    Pilot is #1 for me right now even over the Grand Highlander and Korean Twins. Most reliable with a NA V6 and proven transmission, near top of segment in interior space, tons of features, and most notably 8 seats even on the top trim. Most other mid size 3 row SUVs (and mini vans) don’t have 8 seats in anything higher than the mid level trim. The Korean twins have more features on the top trims but only 7 seats and questionable reliability.

    The Grand Highlander is a close second. Issues for me are the Turbo 4, no 8 seat option in the top Platinum trim and $5k-$10k dealer markups.

    If you want 8 seats, AWD and higher than low or mid level trim, the Pilot is the only option (including mini vans) before going into huge full size SUVs.



  38. Paul Cho on July 11, 2023 at 3:48 am

    If you care about long-term reliability, Hyundai-Kia should not be on the list. crap cars



  39. Ruturaj on July 11, 2023 at 3:51 am

    I am between palisade and pilot, I am going to spend a day at the end of the year to see how both works for my need of putting 2 child seats and accessing 3rd row, how leg space works out etc. I highly prefer the drivetrain and suspension setup of the pilot but the palisade has additional leg space and some convenience features for passengers.



  40. pravara on July 11, 2023 at 3:51 am

    Nice video 👍 could you please also do the same videos for luxury compact and three rows?



  41. Bryan Champagne on July 11, 2023 at 3:52 am

    The omission of the VW Atlas from this list is hard to ignore.



  42. HHH TTT on July 11, 2023 at 3:53 am

    Honda Pilot for me



  43. Fantasy Football on July 11, 2023 at 3:54 am

    Pilot drives WAY better than Telluride/Palisade. The korean twins are total boats while Pilot drives like a small car. The torque vectoring makes the drive amazing.

    Surprised that the ‘luxury look’ of the Korean twins somehow makes them better when Pilot has a much better ride and handling. Koreans twins don’t have things you actually need like wireless android integration and power folding mirrors.

    Truly baffling what people value more in family haulers. Muh big screen, I guess.



  44. kipperrd on July 11, 2023 at 3:55 am

    You’d think I was watching a sports game, I have the 23 palisade calligraphy and when you guys put KIA at number 2 I actually arm pumped and cheered lol.



  45. Rick Burns on July 11, 2023 at 4:00 am

    Explorer is on best and worst list???



  46. Flipper on July 11, 2023 at 4:00 am

    Towing capacity needs to be more important in your rankings.



  47. APZY USA on July 11, 2023 at 4:01 am

    No Subaru Ascent?



  48. HM collectibles on July 11, 2023 at 4:01 am

    Yes, whatever. opinions vary. I tell you I just nice but huge and very pricey.. The other ones I could do without and Im a Toyota guy but test drove Honda’s today. Wow. The interior layout, the drive. We’re great



  49. Himanshu Nayak on July 11, 2023 at 4:03 am

    Was there a price cap for your list of SUVs to review? How come no Lexus or Acura etc??



  50. Kiran Chand on July 11, 2023 at 4:03 am

    why there is no subaru ascent 2023?
