Need help choosing an SUV...so confused

I currently drive a BMW X3 and it has been my favorite car. In past, I drove an MDX and the Lexus GX 470 SUV. My lease is up in February and I need to choose a new car. I prefer to lease, need an SUV for size (hockey equipment on weekends), but don't want to pay the high cost of the BMW X5 and am not sure if it would give me enough space. I like the Mercedes GL but don't want to pay that much. I don't need the size of a large SUV (Escalade). I feel nervous to move away from BMW but know there has to be a better deal/fit for us. I have considered the Buick Enclave, Honda Pilot, Infinity Q60, and the BMW X5. Any ideas? I'm comfortable paying $750.00 per month.
Thanks in advance!

Any of the SUVs you've listed would be good choices, and certainly under your current budget.mayflowerpa said:Hi everyone,

What's important to you? Driving dynamics? Features (technology and such)? Access to 3rd row seating? Storage?
Take some time to look at your options at the dealer and see which of them appeals to you.Edmunds Price Checker

Sounds like you are covering the bases. There's also the Expedition (Explorer?) and Highlander or perhaps the LR4 to add to your spreadsheet.5 -

Buy BMW or MB if you have more money to throw around. They are for people on a ego trip
I would go for Buick Enclave, It is luxuriously appointed without breaking the bank5
