The 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe continues to face tough competition as SUVs and trucks sell gangbusters, including from its own corporate cousins.
The completely redesigned Ford Expedition is an impressive hauler and provides superior fuel economy and cargo space.
The GMC Yukon continues to be the Tahoe’s closest alternative, with a glitzier and more comfortable feel for those who desire a bit more luxury.
Don’t write off the Nissan Armada for its thirsty V-8, as this big alternative is essentially a dialed-down Infiniti QX80 and packs plenty of luxury features.
The ancient Toyota Sequoia offers good quality and capability but feels way behind the times.
As for luxury alternatives, the Volvo XC90 doesn’t offer nearly as much towing capacity or capability, but for a similar price, offers similar interior space and passenger room.
