I've got an X5 and a new Honda Odyssey. The X5 is about as close to an SUV as the minivan. My car has about 50k on it and it is as tight as when it was new. No rattles. It also handels quite well compared to any other SUV out there, which being a 911 owner is important. I tow with mine so that greatly narrows the list of cars I can use, but the X5 is still a great car.
