  6. Other Choices (See why?)   If you need a rugged and supremely capable SUV, the 2008 Ford Explorer is a good choice. The editors of TheCarConnection.com think it's a much better choice than its traditional competitors from General Motors, the Chevrolet TrailBlazer and GMC Envoy. These models haven't changed significantly since their 2002 introduction.
