Built on a truck frame, this SUV is capable of handling off road duties and serious towing. Inside, the design has been upgraded to compete with rivals. I found the third row seating to be useful with the family. Yet the second and third rows can fold down. With them folded down I was able to fit in three float tubes, my rod, waders, and other accessories I needed on a recent TV shoot. I was also impressed with how high I sat in the vehicle. This provided me with great visibility on the highway. For more information or to find a GMC dealer near you, visit www.gmc.com/yukon.

If youd like more information, check out www.scion.com. Also, Scion is usually found at most Toyota dealers, so check out your local dealer for a test drive. WIN!

Land Rover LR2! This SUV was SOOO much fun to drive. It was much smaller than I expected and had all the features I could wish for. The first thing I noticed was that it didnt have a traditional key! Instead the key looks like a pack of gun that you stick into the dashboard and then start the vehicle by pressing START. Totally cool. My vehicle had a 3.2 liter inline six-cylinder that was designed to resist dust, mud and water. The fully independent strut-type suspension gives you a softer, more comfortable ride and for those of you who love to go off road, the 8.3 inch ground clearance and all wheel drive is awesome.
