Best for
- Owners who tow regularly — the 8,000 lb rating and body-on-frame structure handle larger trailers comfortably.
- Households needing all-three-rows-up cargo room; 25.5 cu ft behind row 3 leads the segment we cover.
- Buyers comfortable with a longer, taller vehicle in exchange for outright space and capability.
Watch out for
- Body-on-frame chassis trades on-road refinement for towing strength; ride feel over broken pavement is firmer than the unibody peers.
- Footprint and turning radius are full-size — garages, urban parking, and tight maneuvers require space.
- Top trims escalate to $172,220, putting equipment-loaded examples in territory normally occupied by other luxury flagships.
