Looking to Purchase mid-size to full size SUV

So our family is in the process of purchasing an SUV. The men in the family have no problem driving anything, but the women can't see over the dash sometimes, can't reach the pdeals, or sometimes just feel like they're driving a tank. I just need some opinions on what cars to research and take into consideration during this time.

We have currently looked at:

-Lexus GX470
-Lexus LX
-Toyota Land Cruiser

It is also possible that we are considering the following as well:

-Toyota 4Runner
-Toyota Sequoia
-Nissan Aramada
-Infiniti QX56

Our family is in some ways biased as we only purchase Japanese or high end European cars, so our range is limited.

We need an SUV that is:

-Comfortable for the majority of the passengers, specifically targeting sufficient leg room, particularly in the back seat
-Enough cargo room to transport luggage, groceries and/or large bulky items
-Is 4WD because we are avid skiiers
-"Easy to drive" in that it is easy to maneuveur and feel "one" with the vehicle


Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

As far as European SUV's go- I'd check out the Mercedes ML500 and the Audi Q7. If you like the BMWs, I would wait a few months until the new X5 comes out. Finally, I'd check out the Range Rover.
