Motor Trend has announced the list of SUV contenders for its "SUV of the Year" award.
Of course this award is great to whomever wins, due to all of the bragging rights that come along with it. It's usually heavily used in every ad campaign. Last year the Subaru Forester took home the award.
Which SUV do you think should win this year's award?
2010 Motor Trend SUV of the Year Contenders:
Acura ZDX
Audi Q5
Cadillac SRX
Chevrolet Equinox
GMC Terrain
Lexus RX
Lincoln MKT
Mercedes GLK
Subaru Outback
Toyota 4Runner
Volvo XC60

The Cadillac SRX, Chevy Equinox and, GMC Terrain should be this years winners because they all look great and refreshing from the rest of the crowd.

Personally I think the GMC Terrain is just about as ugly as anything from South Korea. And that's pretty ugly.
The Audi Q5 on the other hand looks sharp and is quite the vehicle. Great handling, legendary Audi Quattro drive, and 4400 lb tow rating.

That Acura Aztek wannabe needs to be on the 10 ugliest list.

Q5 no question, esp given weak competition

Are you kidding?
The Chevy Equinox and GMC Terrain is the same old GM re-badge/chang the nose BS.
@ RX-7 Guy
Maybe because stupid sheep finally realize they don't need a shitty riding SUV to take the kids to soccer games. They get the upright seating and storage with much better handling/ride.

The Equinox has been getting great reviews from the automotive press and fully deserves to be on this list.
That GMC has a vehicle based on the same chassis does not change that fact.
I don't believe GM is the source of the BS around here. The BS is coming from the same old stupid sheep chanting "All American cars suck!"
