That is pretty much an apples / oranges comparison to me - low slung street truck vs. capable 4x4 off road truck.

The vehicles I also considered at the time of purchase were: a late model 2 door Blazer 4x4 (most likely a ZR2) a Ford Escape Hybrid (ok, dont laugh...it was only on the list for about 2.5 seconds) Jeep Liberty (probably would have gone that route if the roof line was 3-4 inches lower so it would look like it has a "stance", not just a tippy box on wheels, or the VX.
