It's not a car that Consumer Reports has ever liked. The electrics are allegedly troublesome. It's an appealing car, but check on ePinions.com. Most reviews are pretty favorable, including one at 100k. It will probably be pretty thirsty, since the 2.8v6 isn' known for speed, nor does it have a turbo, so... it's going to eat gas, but probably not like an Explorer.
There are also the Volvo V70 Cross Country, Mercedes Benz 4matic- both of which offered a third seat, as does the Audi A6. An older Lexus RX300 would also be pretty good on gas and offer predictable reliability.. as would an Acura MDX.
Unless you go Japanese, you'll probably look at doing typical Euro- normal repairs..on any of the above.
Hard to decide, I'm sure. Best of luck.
