2009 Dodge Journey

As a smaller crossover, the Journey's a good alternative to the Saturn Vue and Subaru Forester, maybe even to a Dodge Grand Caravan--just don't pile on the expensive options.

2009 Saturn VUE

Pictures

With its available V-6 engine, the 2009 Saturn Vue is a bit more fun to drive than other compact SUVs; otherwise it’s not a standout.

2008 Honda CR-V

Pictures

The 2008 Honda CR-V doesn't have hip style or performance on tap, but it has the security, utility, and frugality that many sensible moms want.

2008 Hyundai Tucson

Pictures

The 2008 Hyundai Tucson no longer stands out in its class for performance or safety, but it’s still a great value.

2008 Nissan Rogue

Pictures

With the 2009 Nissan Rogue, the crossover market gets another right-sized entry that’s just a little tighter inside than the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4.
