Yeah I had a mate whow worked for Ford. Told me to always steer clear of Territory's and Escapes.

I would chose Rav4 (Toyota make the best 4wd's, might as well give their soft roaders a go too) or an Xtrail. I also like the Mitsubishi Challenger or the Outlander, on the outside.. the outlanders interior is terrible, unless you go the top spec one. And there's something about the brand Mitsubishi.. I'd never buy one
