I just got a used Honda Pilot - my dream car! It works great for hauling my two dogs (50 lbs and 65 lbs) or for hauling my bikes. I did get a bed liner for the back so it's easier to clean muddy dog or bike stuff. One note if you get an suv: the age of your dogs. My dogs are 10 and 8. My 10 yo is starting to show signs of arthritis and had a hard time jumping in the vehicle. I looked at the forrester and legecy before the pilot and didn't like how either drove, but it's my primary vehicle and I drive about 10 hours a week.

JMO. Happy Shopping!
