Yeah, I did already buy the Yukon XL, and I must say, that extra foot of trunk space does matter. We crammed every square inch of that truck with gear :) A while back I did consider getting a 4Runner as it will fit 7, so it would work to drive the kids around town, but no way could we road...

By booster seat I meant a backless child seat, smaller but still takes up more space than just a kid by him/herself. Anyway, I ended up finding a 2006 Yukon XL 1500 SLT with 179,000 miles for $3800. It has been regularly maintained, it does need a little bit of work that wasn't immediately...

Yeah, at this point I think it's going to end up being either a Suburban/Yukon XL or Excursion/Expedition EL. We might be able to make do with the reduced cargo space in a Sequoia or Expedition, but this feels like a classic go big or go home scenario, if I'm going to buy something big I might...

Hi All, I'm new to the forum, hopefully I'm putting this in the right place. I've been looking for a vehicle that can take me, my wife, and 4 kids ages 4-10 on dispersed camping trips in Colorado (and maybe surrounding states once we're feeling a bit more brave). We just got back from camping...
