If you want such a ride, take a look at the 2000 and newer Isuzu Rodeo. It's a much sturdier vehicle than the Honda (although the first few years were Honda badged Rodeos), Toyota and Nissan. Some of the Rodeos have a wiring problem, but that's an easy fix. I liked mine and after seeing it from the ground on a hoist I was impressed with the over build. It was like looking at a heavy duty truck. Buy the V6, not the 4 banger. They use a GM sealed (no dipstick) AT w/OD and GM's 6 hole-pattern 16" aluminum wheels. Mine averaged 22mpg city/highway driving. And the only problem I had with it was an EGR valve that required cleaning too often for my book. R\\%/itt ...
