I've never seen the "utility" in SUV's. You can't haul a load of trash to the dump when the bed or your "truck" is carpeted and has seats.
Mrs. randog and I were driving to church this morning and were looking at the new Dodge Durango SUV. Right next to it was a Dodge Caravan. I pointed out that the Durango was just a Caravan set on top of a 4WD chassis.
Exactly.
PU trucks are probably the most practical vehicle made. Mine seats 6 if necessary, and I have used it a thousand times to haul all kinds of things.
Sure you can. I've done it.
Now let's see you take seven people to the airport in your pickup truck.
The caravan has way more room than the durango. Hard to be believe, but it's true. The caravans are way more practical unless you're going to be pulling something.
