I am a fan of Cayennes and not ruling that out . But what are other suggestions in the 15 - 20 K range ? We want to stay about RAV4 size or a little bigger . Suggestions ?

My wife has a 4 or 5 year old RAV 4, good vehicle except I hate it because the ride is stiff and they didn't put sound-deadening in the vehicle and it is
LOUD inside.
I can hear every pebble or crack in the road in that car.
Gives me a headache. They reportedly made it better in the newer version.
There are websites dedicated to owners trying to make their RAV-4s quieter.
But because of that I bought a highlander.
Same great reliability, plenty of power, larger than the RAV-4 but still easy to maneuver and park, and a nice quiet comfortable ride.
And changing the tires at 75k will likely be the most expensive maintenance I'll ever do on it. Hard to say that about a cayenne.
My mom has a Lincoln suv and the highlander has a smoother, quieter ride.
