I would strongly suggest against the jeep. I can't believe people even consider them with all the problems they have.

Expedition or Sequoia. I know she said no Ford, but she needs to consider it.
Ford is offering the Expedition at 0% percent financing for 60 months. That alone should make it a consideration.

I have a Sienna. Looks ain't gonna turn your head, but you won't beat practicality of a van. .
ive never understood this sentiment because the doors slide sideways? I have no problem getting kid/bags/groceries/whatever in and out of my wifes fullsize SUV.

I would strongly suggest against the jeep. I can't believe people even consider them with all the problems they have. I guess I'll be the odd man out on this one. We have a 2015 Grand Cherokee with just under 100k on it and have really enjoyed it. It has everything you can possibly get on a vehicle, gets really good gas mileage and has good cargo space. It doesn't have a 3rd row, though. I had to replace two ignition coils about two months ago, but that has been it. I don't consider that a big deal. I've replaced every one them on my 04 F150 at least once, but in fairness it is pushing 270k these days. Honestly though, the F150 was our preferred vehicle for traveling until it got passed down to my son. Throw a bed cover on it and you can easily carry 5 adults and as much cargo as you want to take with you. Call me odd, but I've tried to like the Highlander and just can't. It's basically a minivan without the usefulness of sliding doors.

Hands down the best family vehicle for 5 & the occasional guest is a good mini van. Odyssey is top of the list followed by the Sienna. My wife has driven one for 2 decades. We sold our newer Sienna this summer and bought an older Pilot to save $ with some college expenses. But my wife misses the practicality, room, comfort and ease of long trips of a van. About to sell the pilot and get an Odyssey again. I've driven vans plenty and they go from AtoB quite well. Very comfortable. To me that's the point of a family vehicle...room, comfort, practical. Plus fuel economy is better than any large SUV.
Big SUVs are great too but suck much more fuel. And back row ease of getting in and out is harder. Like the ride height better than a van. Expeditions are great vehicles. Suburban/Yukon XL are good. Infinity QX80 looks sharp. Some people just aren't van people.
