The Toyota Sequoia is a vast vehicle with superb towing capacity--specs that drive it into a niche with the other remaining full-size SUVs.
That includes the Ford Expedition, GMC Yukon/Chevy Tahoe, and to a lesser extent the Dodge Durango, along with the Nissan Armada.
The Ford Expedition has a more luxurious interior than the Sequoia and is perhaps the best-riding of these full-size SUVs; its powertrain, while smooth, isn't as strong as those in rival models, though.
GM's pair offer stronger V-8s, and for more bling, there's always the Escalade.
The GM and Ford utes are offered in even longer models that may be a better, roomier pick if you intend to carry a large family, or many passengers.
The Nissan Armada is the worst of the bunch for fuel economy, but it has a simplified (and affordable) presentation that's geared toward families who need the towing ability; on the down side, its interior is feeling quite dated now.
Those who want more of an upscale crossover look and feel, but with some level of sturdy truck ability, should also check out the Dodge Durango, which offers one of the most opulent, refined interiors in this class.
It's slightly smaller, too.
