Anybody have experience with any of these? We're specifically interested in the longer term quality of the Kia...it's pretty damn fancy and for 50 it has every bit of technology and features one could ever want.

If she's ever going to go off-road, the only one to pick is the 4 Runner. Damned things will go anywhere. The other two not so much.
I loved my 4 Runner, though the gas mileage wasn't great. But whether it was snowy roads or muddy bogs out in the middle of nowhere, it always soldiered right through all of it. Probably the most reliable SUV/truck I ever owned.
The other two are basically city utes; the Lexus is obviously the luxury version and the Kia is the budget-minded.
