As far as reliability I only look at that so much. There isn't one car that has been mass produced that haven't had a break down. There also isn't one that has had 100% junk for a whole model. So you could go buy the worst car out there for reliability and not have a problem at all.

Going by Carpoint for the for reliability these are the good years...

Range Rover 2005 2007 2008. 2006 was ok. A few reported problems with that one.

X5 has a few issues including a $1000 suspension problem.

Cayenne No data

Benz M Class was good in 2005 and 2008.

Grand Cherokee good from 2006 and 2008

Tahoe Good in 2008

Explorer Good 2006-2008

Hummer H2 2007-2008

FX 2003-2008

QX56 2004-2007

RX330 2004-2008

Murano 2004 and 2006

Volkswagen Touareg 2005-2007

My 2004 Tribute only list a small problem

A periodic problem with this vehicle is failure of the rear Shock Absorbers. The cost to repair the rear Shock Absorbers is estimated at $110.00 for parts and $58.50 for labor. All prices are estimates based on $65.00 per flat rate hour and do not include diagnostic time or any sales tax..

I haven't had this issue yet but had a few others. Some were just normal wear items going out or being replaced with larger items making those repair bills a bitch.
