Questions about 2008 RAV4, Rogue, CR-V.?

Planning to buy either 2008 RAV4, Rogue, or CR-V. Not sure which one, I plan to buy AWD Fully Loaded with Leather, and no Navigation. Which is the best choice for Leasing under 36 or 48 Months, and what is a good price to accept from the dealer for any of the Cars? Thanks. Leasing in Ontario.

1. If you can afford it, I'd get the RAV4 with the V6 - even if you have to sacrifice a few options to get the V6. The RAV4's V6 makes the CR-V and Rogue's 4 cylinder motors feel like cheap wind-up toys in comparison - the RAV4 with the V6 is actually pretty fast (it's as fast to 60 and in the 1/4mi as a VW GTI in fact). Take the test drives if you haven't already...
2. I like the Nissan Rogue the best.
3. Saturn VUE
4. I'm considering all three too and I'm pretty much set on the Rogue. I know the RAV-4 is offered with a V6 but with gas prices what they are and the fact that I'm not planning on racing anyone I'd rather go with the nicer looking Rogue. The CR-V is nice too but a little boring imo. Bottom line, they're all nice and reliable cars and it's really your taste that matters. As far as reliability, I know people that swear by Toyotas and Hondas and I've heard good personal experiences from those that have Nissans too. If you go to the car sites you can build one to your specifications and it gives you a price and payment (lease or buy) summary.
