It's a much better driving SUV for on road use than the FJ80, but with the same reliability and most of the off road ability.
Good suggestions (and you definitely understand the buckling in the 3-year old activity). We've looked briefly at the Mazdas (didn't drive them, though) and the wife didn't like them. The Acuras are nice, but surprisingly pricey (and very few seem to come up for sale locally). Haven't looked at the Infiniti.

We owe it to ourselves to go check out a 100 series LC. There are a few for sale locally. That's a good idea.
