But I was very surprised with the GLS, it felt more nimble and ready to go compared to the GLE.

The X5 felt somewhat in between, even in sport mode I did not feel how I usually felt with the 3 series so I kind of dismissed it along with less cargo space and cheap interior feel.

The XC90, felt really good and in sport mode it really drove well, but I still have to test drive it on the highway.

The MDX also was fine in sports mode, but the infotainment is something I am having a hard time getting past.
You can't expect an SUV weighing 1,500lbs more to feel even vaguely similar to a sporty sedan.
