You don’t think Honda and Toyota engines are underpowered?

A lot of engines are arguably underpowered now to be more environmentally friendly. Large SUVs with underpowered engines that previously had V-8s....

I wouldn't buy Hyundai/Kia but above is such a stupid false statement.


Agree. Would you buy Genesis? People are flocking to that car.


I don’t see lots of genesis. I see lots of telluride. Time will tell how they hold up. Reviews on initial quality weren’t great.

I have a Mazda CX-50 and really like it. You could look at that or the CX-5.

Just lease a Mercedes every 3 years.

Good, they're made by Ford, which I've had good luck with.

Honda or Toyota fine, too. Would steer clear of Kia, Hyundai, or Genesis, personally.

No Genesis. Depends on how long you keep your car. If you keep it until it dies, don't get them. If you plan to trade in after a few years, then I can see some logic in getting one.

Honda apparently has had some issues with transmissions and are no longer topping the lists. RAV4 is pricey for what you get due to high demand. Lexus RX design is not my thing. What is left?
European models like BMW, Audi, Volvo, Volkswagen look great but have costly routine maintenance according to friends.

What about Genesis? Rave reviews, topping the lists everywhere, but still made by Kia and Hyundai?

What are thoughts on current Lincoln SUVs of last few years? I like the looks of the two small models. I usually buy the usual Honda and Toyotas but want to branch out. Are they reliable these days or will this be a maintenance nightmare? I am also considering Kia, Hyundai and Genesis.
