    I would not get the Ford Exploder since it's probably on it's last leg before it is completely removed. The Dodge Nitro doesn't look too attractive and quality would probably suck as well. The Mitsubishi hasn't sold well and looks boring. The Nissan is the only one I would consider on your list.

    ditto w/ sir redorange's inputs.

    although if you consider "strong presence" on the road, choose only from the murano and the nitro...BUT you're far better off w/ the nissan murano...it commands more respect and shows sophistication on the owner's taste, in my opinion.

    If you can stretch your budget Mazda CX9 is a better option

    Best resale will probably the Nissan Murano. The Nitro would be the best bet for off-road use. The Endeavor for a saloon-like ride, as what other reviewers have said.

    Why get an SUV/CUV for that price?

    Thanks for the quick reply guys i have narrowed my choices to the Murano and Endeavor maybe it will just boil down on whoever offers the best deal. unfortunately i cannot stretch the budget because the CX9 is too far off from the budget submitted to me. thanks for the inputs and MABUHAY!! - maktill

    Hmmm... Endeavor vs. Murano?

    Murano for me. The interior of the Endeavor is just 'cheap-looking', imho.

    we have ford explorer. PMS cost is just about the same as my first Honda CRV Gen 1.
    it's our third year na with this car, no major replacements puro PMS lang. matibay ang pang-ilalim nya

    talo ka nga lang sa km/liter, but the trade-off, even the police in Megamall Pasig-mandaluyong boundary dont flag you down on coding day

    murano is slightly bigger than the 3rd gen crv but smaller than the Santa Fe. parang lugi if 2.5M+ bucks for an suv that looks like in the 1.6M+ price range

    Dodge nitro is nice ... wouldn't mind owning one if I had the extra bucks

    i'd go with the Murano. I've been in one and man! it commands respect!
    Super nice ride and executive looking interior. The Nitro, which we have one sitting in the parking of our office, is attractive at first. But as you grow familiar with it, it loses its charm. haven't been in one though.

    forget the explorer. very boring ride. Endeavor is just as boring.

    Price difference is big naman, kaya Murano wins for me.

    Hope this helps.
