Help! Between 2022 Acura MDX vs 2022 Q7, which would be great for drive. I'm open to BMW X5 and Volvo XC90 and Telluride. Going through analysis paralysis

X5 all day for best drive.

Telluride is by far the best bang for your buck on that list, but I wouldn't consider it a driver's car.

I'd put the X5 as the most driver focused, then the MDX, then the rest.

I bought an X5 45e PHEV and *love* it. Idk what your use case is like, but for me, 30 miles of electric range covers most of my daily errands. And when I need to go farther, I have a ballsy inline 6 on tap, which sounds great and pulls like none other.

In my first 10,000 miles, I’ve averaged ~60 MPG. About 7000 of those miles have been electric.

And with the PHEV tax rebate, the 45e was less expensive than a 40i.

We got it completely loaded, and glad we did (cooled seats with massage, adaptive cruise, if you get driver assist +, it’ll drive autopilot style on highways in traffic jams, you can sit back and it’ll do the driving, 0-40mph. When traffic picks back up, it reverts to normal adaptive cruise with you steering. But it’s pretty sweet, and takes all the drama out of traffic jams and replaces it with novelty.)

Everything. We wound up being in a bind and had to make a decision based on what dealers were available.

FWIW, We also liked the Cadillac XT6. (It’s essentially a glorified Chevy Traverse, but it drives nicer than all the “regular” brands (Honda, Kia, etc.) and we enjoyed it as a dark horse option.)

I’d recommend going for some test drives and seeing what speaks to you. There are a lot of great options out there, and you’ll likely prefer some over the others.

New xc90 next year. Telluride is overpriced. Mdx too boring. X5 is nice. Q7 is kinda nice. Consider iX, R1S, 2022 expedition.

My personal choice that I have a reservation for: Ineos Grenadier

X5 looks, drives, and has the best tech.

Yesterday, we officially released the first version of Critter, a new app for iOS & Android geared toward pet owners/people who help take care of your pets. The basic idea is to make it simple to manage and share pet care with a mobile platform for tracking and communicating care updates.

It’s simple: add your pets. Invite people who help with their care (family, friends, professionals). Build a care plan. Track and share updates/pics/docs/etc.

I’m have a new theory about why juniors always feel like idiots and wanted to see if anyone else thinks this makes sense. I’m a third year, and am the most junior person all of my teams (generally me, a senior or two, and a partner or two), and I always feel like I’m messing something up. Is this just because I never get to work with other juniors and don’t see the mistakes they make, and that it’s relatively normal? And FWIW I went to HYS and I’ve had a clerkship so it’s not like I’m not smart
