When it comes to picking a new vehicle, an SUV may be at the top of the list. Large SUVs are good for both on-road and off-road driving, with similar off-road capabilities and power to trucks. However, they offer more cargo space and are more comfortable for families. The only downside is that it is a popular body style with a large list of options to choose from.
