Need a recommendation - car for a friend

Ok one me my good friends has the following requirements for a car:

 

1) seats 5

2) able to tow a small trailer (just a 2 person fishing boat)

3) able to put another 100k miles (dude drives a lot and keeps cars)

 

Here is the killer - 5-8k budget. I am like dude - spend 10-15k and this is easy. That being said, he is firm on his budget. Cars I have suggested:

 

2004 Nissan Xterra

2007 Explorer

2004 Toyota Highlander

2005 Volvo XC90

 

What am I missing - anything on this list to avoid?

Mini van

 

I'm actually going to second this.

 

I third this. Mazda 5?

 

Possibly an older Suburban but it will already have a ton of miles, parts should be cheap and plentiful though.
