I like each of them for very different reasons. The Lexus really is a tank and is great for hauling people and gear, drives like a soft tank, and is really not engaging in any way to drive.
The explorer is what I use for my daily vehicle, and I beat this thing to no end. I drive it hard and on every kind of terrain you can imagine. I have never had a single problem and maintenance has been cheap and a breeze. I am guessing I've spent around $500 in 90k miles. Do I love to drive it? Not at all. The stereo sucks, the interior is cheap, and yet it performs very well as a workhorse.
The X5M is the one vehicle that puts a smile on my face. It's expensive to drive, somewhat needy, lots of maintenance attention, and yet I have never enjoyed the drive of a vehicle more. The quality of materials is top notch, and it drives like a wild animal.
If you want an amazing ride, and are willing to budget for upkeep, you will love the M.
