Sorry if this is not the right community for this. In the US. I currently have a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The air suspension was awesome, but now that it’s failing it’s driving me crazy so I’m looking for something new. I haul wheelchairs and similarly- sized stuff for work so i need some cargo space. I’d love an SUV with second row captains seats and no third row. Does anyone make that? I’m leaning away from American cars, but can be swayed (my last two cars were Camaro and Jeep). I like things that look a little sporty with little/no chrome, a good amount of hp, and AWD is a plus. I usually drive 10-30 miles per day and get a $60/mo stipend- so about one tank of gas right now. I’ve browsed the websites for the new 4runner, Outback, Forester, Santa Fe, and a few others. Appreciate any ideas or opinions.

ETA- 6 months ago the dealer wanted $9k to replace the air suspension, so i went to a small Goodyear shop for $6k instead. That shop was bought by brakes plus and they won’t honor any warranty. Dropped it at the dealer for diag this morning. Just got a call - $4800. I was expecting $9k. Now I’m on the fix it/trade it fence.

    I’ve thought about it -need to look at it more and go drive one. I rented a mach e recently and really liked it… About the same size? My outside of work mileage is about equal to my work mileage, but that still would equal a once a week charge at most. Thanks!

      Somewhat similar to the mach-e yea, although I don’t remember the exact shape of the trunk on the mach-e or which which is more suited to loading wheelchairs in the back.
      Neither are exactly cheap to buy either.
      Test driving, including with a wheelchair if they’ll have you, might be a good idea.
