Hey guys, I'm new to all of this an I'm hoping I can get some insight from those of you that have been around the block. I'm looking to get a three row suv that can pull a tent trailer up Parley's but can also be taken out on more remote routes without the trailer and kids. I'm hoping to keep it between 30K-40K. So far I'm considering the following but would appreciate some help.

5th Gen 4runner, not sure it can pull up Parley's
2011-2013 LR4, I love these but the reliability stigma scares me a little. Has anyone had a lot of experience with an LR4 with higher miles
2012-2015 Lexus GX 460. These see great if you can make some mods but there doesnt seem to be a lot of mod options.
Older Landcruiser/Lexus LX. Expensive to get into.

I go down to southern Utah a couple times a year and stick to the Uintas through the summer.

Thanks for the help
