Help me pick my next used SUV

Guys,

My 2000 Nissan Xterra with 169,000 miles is showing its age, started to run like crap lately. I put in a new distributor that did nothing. Computer OBDII codes are not telling me what the problem is...long story short, it is time to let it go.

Tomorrow I am going to the dealership, and I have to come back with something. I have been using my 911 for commuting lately, but just messed up the exhaust system with backdate exhaust, and another long story short, I need another car to get to work on tuesday.

My budget is, well, as low as possible, but let us say $15k max. We have sports car (1978SC), a sedan (2001 lexus ES300), and we need a replacement SUV for week-end trips to home despot, bad weather commute and vacation trips.

The dealership I am going to has a 2005 Nissan Xterra, a 2003 MB ML320 and a 2001 MB ML 320. The specifics are below. I will come back with one of these three. Which would you pick?

2005 Nissan Xterra Off-Road - MB Motorsports
2001 Mercedes-Benz ML320 - MB Motorsports
2003 Mercedes-Benz ML320 - MB Motorsports
