2.5's suffer with HG's and timing belt failure, 2.8's have issues with the front seal of the pump leaking / sucking air.

DOHC 3.5's have valve lifter issues with infrequent oil changes.

Think I would plump for the 2.8 though...

the most reliable is the 2.5 but is also a little under powered

underpowered thirsty, and for the size of the car very little shoulder room in the cab, feels cramped!
