I am planning to get one. Any suggestions?
I was thinking Toyota Highlander V6 4X2 with 3rd Row Seat
If you are talking brand new, then under 25k, Highlander is probably the only option, and that too with just a base model. The price starts creeping up very quickly once you start adding options.
The closest to $25k with a 3rd row seat, I can think of, would be an Explorer XLT, but its definitely not under $25k, unless you get a really good deal with rebates and stuff.
You will have many more options when you start considering slightly used vehicles.
