Looking to buy a used SUV 2006-2008 just wanting opinions on them I need 3rd row. Have 2 kids 11 & 9 & travel?

I need help on reliability, gas, stylish, how it drives, anything that can help!! I’ve had a 2002 Explorer w/ 3rd row really liked it had 160k on it and transmission went out had to replace and the resale value was horrible. i now have a 2005 Altima had it for several years now went back to a car because my ex-husband had a Chevy HD2500 4-dr and so I went back to a car for gas mileage but now we are divorced and I need something with more ROOM!! My car doesn’t have enough room for growing boys plus spend the night company. I like my Nissan it doesn’t have the smoothest ride it shakes and i have had it checked several times they say eveything is fine but i have read reviews on 2006 Pathfinders on shaking so if anyone can help on answering that. Because I don’t want the same problem again.
I love the body style of the 2007 Tahoe’s but I’m needing to stay at a price range of about $17,000 or less if possible.
Plus I’m not a mini-van mom at all I look real young for my age people often think my 11 year old is my brother.
Anyway my biggest thing is reliability, smooth ride, 3rd row a must, room, I need to be able to pull ATV’s behind on a trailer, DVD optional (can add) and something that can last me for at least the next 3 years…
But i’m wanting COMPARISON and OPINIONS on Nissan Pathfinder, Honda Pilot, Chevrolet Tahoe’s, Toyota 4Runner, maybe a Ford not sure if i want to go back to one!!! But anything on any of these or anything similar would really help thanks!!

Honda Pilot has 3 row seating and can tow a trailer. Plus it gets 25MPG (hwy) and will be reliable for over 300k miles. Can’t say that about Chevys and Fords.

    why dont you wanna go back to ford? 160k is REALLY good for a trans.i can guarantee you you will not get better on ANY of the suvs you mentioned.ford is the best in the industry.

    The Mazda CX-9 is great and they last up to 200k or longer when well maintained!
