While the GL may wear a badge worthy of a little more cachet, some of its full-size SUV competitors offer three rows of seats and exceptional power to match their pricetags, too.
The Cadillac Escalade is rapidly aging, but it remains the best-selling SUV in the segment–due in part to its appeal with celebrities, and in part with its variety of body styles.
The Lincoln Navigator was once the popular kid in the class, but no longer.
However, it has added some legitimate luxury to the package, and it costs much less than the Escalade.
The Infiniti QX80 is also more affordable than the competition, and it comes with legitimate luxury and off-road ability under that polarizing sheet metal.
Finally, there's the Lexus LX 570, which essentially gets a little more leather than the Toyota Land Cruiser from which it was penned.
It's oversized in every dimension, but it's also the most rugged for off-pavement use in the group.
