You be suprised what comes up
Let me guess, mostly Chevy/Ford pickups, Chevy workvans, and old Lincoln Towncars and Ford Crown Victorias?
Pretty much. Plus some Ford Taurus and surprising Caddie Escalades.

Now the Honda is 14 years old and is humming along. All I’ve ever done is gotten oil changes, had the tires rotated, and bought new tires when needed. It had one recall for a seat belt thing.
I want a new car, but it’s really hard to justify getting rid of a car that’s still great.
+1. My Honda minivan is 200K+ miles, 20 years old. Runs like a champ. A few big money items along the way - timing belt change at 100K miles, replace engine mounts at about 150K miles and maybe one of the struts a couple of years ago (not sure if it was actually replaced). Can't seem to be able to find a good replacement for it.. good tradeoff between exterior dimensions, interior space and convenience. Carmax value -$500.
My other car is a Lexus. 12 years old, 100K-ish miles and no major issues other than the usual and customary. Carmax value - $9,500.
I just helped my parents sell their old Odyssey. (Former grandkid hauler- but the grandkids are now all driving themselves!) 2007, EX-L. Timing belt change at 100k, and they had to fix something that caused the A/C to go out around 150k (I don't remember what exactly it was). Other than that, no issues. Immaculate interior and exterior condition, impeccably maintained. 160k miles. We sold it for $6k. The things hold up and hold their value pretty darn well!

Sadly, Toyota discontinued the Land Cruiser. 4 Runner is getting a redesign for 2024 and sounds promising.

Love my Tahoe. Software is a little glitchy, but otherwise it’s great.

Get Japanese car (except Nissan). Chevy Tahoe/suburban line lasts surprisingly long too.

I went from a Subaru to a Lexus. Yes the Subaru was super reliable but the Lexus has such a nicer drive and is so much more comfortable.

Factually the Chevy Suburban lasts the longest. Based on a report I saw of SUVs still registered with over 200,000 on odometer

I’m on year 15 of my highlander. A few little lingering problems but mostly just like lugging along with general (though often very late) maintenence.

^^ pp again.. I know OP asked about SUVs. I'd recommend SUVs made by Honda and Lexus/Toyota based on my above experience.

There is more maintenance needed/recommended by Honda at 85k than oil changes to keep the car in a good shape.
