I would vote for the loaded Highlander--but that's based on my own needs--the Acura and Infiinti would be too small. The Lexus would probably be $5K more than the Toyota.
But--if you need a smaller SUV, I'd go with the Acura (I don't care for the EX styling).

Overall, I will let my wife pick what she wants and I'll just have to work out the best deal. Before this thread even started, the RDX and RX were her top suv's to look at. Between those two models, I believe I can get a great deal.

When we go to the Lexus dealer, the 400h will be on the list to look at but the invoice on those are almost 4k more over gas version for same equipment level and there's no tax credit anymore. It would depend on amount of dealer discount and what's in stock for delivery or in the pipeline within the next couple of weeks. Having our 300es totaled could not have come at a worse time

Still a big price difference.....if less so than with new vehicles.

The search has ended and after driving:
08 RDX - ride too harsh but would be my choice if I had to drive an SUV
08 MDX - wife like it but dealer was too greedy and lost the sale
08 Highlander -nice but dealer greedy
08 EX35 - Too small in back...she did not even want to drive it
08 RX350 AWD - THE WINNER! Rides great, the price was right, and I got my GS430 washed there

Congratulations! One of the main complaints about the RDX (that I don't share) is the harsh ride. Of course that translates into sportier performance, but the RX350 is a great SUV and I'm sure you and your wife will be happy.

I loved the sport shift mode using the paddle shifter. When the salesman tried to explain this feature to my wife, she just said "too much trouble...I'll leave it in Drive"
