The 2018 Chevrolet Suburban is the ultimate weekend road-trip vehicle ready to haul nine people, their luggage, and even an 8,300 pound trailer. Try that in a crossover.
Pros Upscale interior Strong V-8 engine Superlative towing ability More fuel efficient than you might think
Cons High cargo floor Rides more like a truck than rivals Expensive at every level Throwback looks
Unless you need the Suburban's nine-passenger configuration (which is only available on the base LS model), we recommend going with the midlevel LT trim. It comes with a substantial amount of standard equipment and is a solid pick as is. But we'd suggest getting the Luxury package to add some useful driver safety aids and a power liftgate.
Pros Seating for up to nine passengers Cargo capacity is generous Strong V8 engine can tow and haul plenty of cargo
Cons Maneuvering in tight spaces is challenging High cargo floor means more effort to load objects Lazy gas pedal response makes engine feel weaker than rated
