Outlander in the Market
Practicality notwithstanding, the Outlander is just too rough around the edges. Competitors have their annoyances — the CR-V has ride quality issues, the RAV4 has an infernal sideways-swinging tailgate — but the Outlander's are manifold. Drive the Rogue or CR-V, and you'll agree that a $25,000 crossover should not feel overtly cheap. The Outlander still does.
