So I want an SUV despite the gas prices. I don't want to spend more than $15K. What would your opinions be on these brands and/or what would you suggest?

Infiniti QX4
Toyota 4Runner

I've heard that Infiniti's don't hold up as well, but my friend's mom has one with 115K on it and it's doing perfectly.

But Toyota 4Runners...not sure about that but everybody fantasizes about them over other Japanese SUVs (that go to my school).
