We are on our fourth suburban & they have been very reliable vehicles. 87, 91, 98, 00 are the years we have owned. We use our Sub for hauling, well stiffs (funeral home :o) as well as pulling a 24 ft boat, heavy trailers, etc & it works great! The latest gen has much better brakes then the older ones as well. We also added 17 inch rims to ours which drastically improved the handling/road feel of the vehicle while 2 of my friends just added 20 inch rims & it actually looks really good :o)
Problem wise, in 45K miles, it's been 95% trouble free!!
Whatever yuou decide on, just be sure to read the manufacturers specs on it's load carrying capacity. Many of the smaller SUV's are almost at their max with simply 5 people in it.
X-girlfriend had a 2001 grand cheroke & well, it sucks. Extremely uncomfortable & small compared to a suburban/yukon XL
