I second this. But maybe something like a trailblazer if you don't want a truck. Absolutely bulletproof engine, transmissions aren't bad as long as you don't abuse them. Parts galore and cheap. Decent fuel economy for a v8.
I miss our truck....
I work a lot of GMT360 Trailblazers & Envoy's.....Get a Tahoe or a Yukon if you're set on a SUV! Just about everything on a GMT360 is tougher to work on than a fullsize GMT800/GMT900. Not to mention chassis electrical problems associated with the GMT360.
