why is everyone hating on the TX, it’s literally the best SUV on the market right now

[KNRS]

I expected the MDX, X5, or GV80 to be #1 so I'm really surprised the TX won. Maybe it's one of those cars that feels a lot nicer in person than the pictures. However, from what I've seen in reviews and in pictures, it doesn't look that much nicer than a Grand HIghlander and feels too Toyota.

TX gets 4 for driving experience? MDX gets 3?? I drove both and the Acura was by far the better driving experience. TX should’ve gotten 2 I think

[CarGeek]

As much as I love my mom’s 2023 MDX Advance, the TX definitely deserved 1st place on this list. The TX is the one to buy if you’re going to use the 3rd row regularly however for us the MDX is a better choice as we rarely use the 3rd row, like the wood trim in the MDX, like the N/A V6 in the MDX, and like the driving dynamics of the MDX (best part of the MDX over the TX). I do feel the MDX should’ve got a 2 in the space category though (3rd row has decent room, but it’s def tight compared to something like a Lexus TX, trunk is large though). Also IMO the Acadia Denali doesn’t belong on this list. It just doesn’t seem luxurious to me. You guys should’ve def put the top-trim Mazda CX90 on this list though, that’s a true luxury SUV. I feel like the MDX, TX, and CX90 are the top 3 choices for a Japanese luxury SUV, new QX60 is a chronically sad joke from my experience as it drives poorly. Between the CX90, MDX, and TX, I think the CX90 is best for sportiness, TX is the best for comfort, MDX is a blend of the two. TX is ofc the way to go if you’re going to use the 3rd row regularly however, I just wish the TX used more wood trim and better ambient lighting.

Very useful video. I'm a subscriber and I appreciate your content. I have a Cadillac XT6 and watched this video to decide if I want to maybe get a different mid-size 3 row SUV. Although I don't have any complaints of my XT6. Thanks guys!

You need to do a kennel test. A lot of people have dog kennels and want to know what size kennels will fit in the back with the third row folded down. The three most popular sized kennels are the RuffLand X-Large, Large, and Intermediate sizes. I am shopping for a SUV and need to know what size kennel will fit in the back. Also, If the back lid will close properly. If the folded down third seat is flat enough to hold the kennel without rocking. And will the kennel fit lengthwise or sideways with a side door entrance option.

It would be REALLY nice if you could do a kennel size fitting test on SUVs since nobody else is doing this and this would be a great way to show the amount of space you actually have in the back of each SUV. Hope you do this, since this is a huge buying factor for people with dogs and kennels.

The Aviator looks the best out of all these and drives best and has 400hp. It would be my choice for sure. Then the Genesis then the Acura. Most of these dont even have a plethora of colors to choose from especially BMW, Mercedes, Volvo etc....black gray white silver

Excellent review !! Thank you so much !! Love watching !!

I'm not sure one can give the #1 spot in the 'Best Luxury Midsize' category to a vehicle that you rank 2.5 for the Luxury category... The very essence of buying in this segment are the 'Luxury' features. Lexus, while being a very nice vehicle, has been living in the middle of the segment for awhile now. So far as materials used inside the cabin, how far you have to climb the trim levels to get to a Pano sunroof etc, it falls short from the #1 spot. It really belongs a ranking in the middle of the class.

Appreciate your informative vlogs. I understand that your rankings are yours and are subjective. I just value the Luxury/Tech/ride portion more than space for example

Thank you so very much for the "less than 75k price" showing how much better are Car prices in the states VS thePoorCousin🇨🇦👍👍👍

[lingaprasanth]

Excellent review. Can you also share the top 10 non luxury mid size 3row SUVs now? Looking forward to that video from you soon!

[ajc]

Can't believe the QX60 didn't make your list??

[moneypenny]

I’m not sure this is the best one… I’m partial to Toyota vs their upscale brand, Lexus.

[emmanuellemi]

Great comparison and great video as usual. Please may you make a similar comparison of the “non luxury vehicles”. I am most interested in the Hyundai Palisade because I am serious considering buying one. Thank you.

When I first got a Mdx it was a 2017 technology awd and granted its not a sports suv and yes the throttle respond might be a bit slow but when driven in sport mode it does the job 😅put it in comfort and drives smooth it’s definitely not for everyone

[ValerieTyson]

@carconfections help! I have been trying to figure out the best third row suv, second row captains seat, saddle brown baseball glove interior seats out there $75-85k max. My husband is 6’3 and I’m 5”2.. we almost settled on the 2024 Infiniti 80 then the new one is so different but out of budget. Any thought? Love your channel!

[darabu.julhaz]

this video is practically helpful to potential buyers looking for 3 row midsize family SUV!

[piggybox]

TX is not for sale due to recall as for now...

[sbrahma]

excellent video.. How come Audi Q7 didn't make in the top 10.. Also what about Range Rover?
