	2008 Toyota 4Runner The 2008 Toyota 4Runner is a truck-based mid-size sport-utility model. A perennially popular off-roader, the 2008 Toyota 4Runner is offered in both two- and four-wheel-drive layouts, and in SR5, Sport, or Limited trim levels.
	2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser Toyota unveiled the FJ Cruiser for the 2007 model year, cashing in on the retro theme played out on other crossovers and SUVs--in this case, with design cues reaching back to Toyota's 1960s-era FJ40--but underpinning it with real truck toughness.
	2008 Toyota Highlander You're looking at the second-generation 2008 Toyota Highlander, which is bigger inside and out than the SUV it replaces. While the Highlander used to be sized closely to the Ford Escape, it's now in line with the Ford Explorer. Its styling has grown even more rounded but less distinctive, and while the interior feels like a quality piece, it's not a standout in terms of style, either.
	2008 Toyota Highlander Hybrid If you're into the whole green revolution, then you know that in 2008 hybrid vehicles are still pretty rare. "Full" hybrids that can actually be driven on pure battery power alone--versus "mild" hybrids that just shut off
	2008 Toyota Land Cruiser For the first time since 1998, Toyota's legendary rugged off-road model has been completely redesigned for this year. The 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser remains about the same size as the vehicle it replaces, but it gets a much more
	2008 Toyota RAV4 The RAV4 is Toyota's smallest crossover utility vehicle. The biggish compact slots into the Toyota lineup between the Matrix hatchback and the now large-midsize Highlander. Unlike many of the other compact crossover vehicles, it wedges
	2008 Toyota Tacoma Ever since it was last redesigned in 2005, Toyota's Tacoma has been more of a mid-size pickup model than a compact. But it remains available in a wide range of models powered by four- and six-cylinder engines that make it a more fuel
	2008 Toyota Tundra After being completely redesigned for the 2007 model year, the Toyota Tundra returns for 2008 with only a few minor changes. While the previous Tundra had been slightly smaller than full-size best-sellers such as the Ford F-150 and C
	2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD Who needs 660 pound-feet of torque? Someone who needs to drag 13,000 pounds around, that's who. And the only 3/4-ton truck that can tackle that job is the 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, armed with the optional 6.6-li
	2008 Chevrolet TrailBlazer 2008 Chevrolet TrailBlazer The TrailBlazer, Chevrolet's mid-size SUV, shares its platform with the GMC Envoy, Buick Rainier, and Saab 9-7X. The 2008 Chevrolet TrailBlazer is built on a frame--a layout typical of pickups and older-design SUVs built for
	2008 Jeep Patriot The 2008 Jeep Patriot is the Chrysler brand's new small crossover vehicle, mechanically similar to both the more softly styled Jeep Compass and the more carlike Dodge Caliber.
	2009 Dodge Ram 1500 When everybody's wrong about something, it's common to hear the idiom, "Hindsight is 20/20." When Dodge began its much-needed redesign of the Ram 1500, the company still expected trucks to be popular with all kinds of drivers, not j
	2008 Dodge Ram 2500 The 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 is a fairly civilized workhorse, comfortable and composed. Granted, like a draft horse (a real one, like on a farm), to be truly happy they need to be working--pulling or carrying something heavy. But keep
	2008 Ford Explorer You'd need to be an older driver to remember a time when our highways and byways weren't clogged with tall SUVs. The SUV craze started a few years after the minivan boom began, and most experts credit Jeep with building the first mode
	2008 Sport Trac 2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac When you look at the 2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, what you see is part Ford Explorer SUV and part pickup truck. And what you see is what you get. The Sport Trac is about 17 inches longer than the SUV on which it's based.
	2008 GMC Envoy The Envoy is GMC's mid-size sport-utility vehicle, closely related to the Chevrolet TrailBlazer, Buick Rainier, and Saab 9-7X. Unlike many new utility vehicles, the 2008 GMC Envoy has traditional truck-based underpinnings, which make it
	2008 GMC Sierra 1500 GMC's full-size Sierra pickup was completely redesigned for 2007, and it returns with only modest changes in standard features for the 2008 model year and a new All Terrain model. The 2008 GMC Sierra 1500 is mechanically similar an
	2008 GMC Yukon 2008 GMC Yukon Like the Chevy Tahoe with which it shares a platform, the GMC Yukon was completely revised for the 2007 model year; they continue into 2008 with minor changes.
	2008 GMC Yukon Hybrid For some buyers, the big news about the 2008 GMC Yukon Hybrid will be fuel economy. GMC achieved EPA ratings of 21 mpg city/22 mpg highway for the Yukon Hybrid two-wheel-drive model. This is impressive mileage for such a big vehic
	2008 Land Rover LR3 2008 Land Rover LR3 The 2008 Land Rover LR3, the mid-price, mid-size luxury sport-utility vehicle from the British brand, borrows key styling cues from its larger showroom companion, the Range Rover. It returns in 2008 with some interior trim adjustmen
	2008 Nissan Armada 2008 Nissan Armada The 2008 Nissan Armada full-size SUV caters to those who need serious towing ability along with space to haul up to eight passengers. The sturdy full-size 2008 Nissan Armada is based on the Titan pickup, so it's built on a fully boxed
	2008 Nissan Pathfinder Nissan's mid-size, truck-based Pathfinder is a comfortable, luxurious SUV for those who need traditional truck ruggedness for heavy towing or moderately strenuous off-roading. Newly available on the 2008 Nissan Pathfinder is a 31
	2008 Nissan Xterra The back-to-basics, mid-size Xterra sport-utility vehicle appeals to active younger people who need to go off-road or haul clunky accessories such as kayaks, snowboards, or diving equipment. The 2008 Nissan Xterra is built on the Fro
	2008 Lincoln Navigator Funny to think that the full-size SUV has only been around since 1998, and back then, they were just glorified work trucks--not exactly pigs with lipstick, but you get the idea. Today, the full-size luxury SUV segment is well pop
	2008 Mercury Mountaineer For the longest time, Mercurys have just been nice Fords. And so it is with the 2008 Mercury Mountaineer. It's really just a very nice Ford Explorer not that being a finely tailored Explorer is a bad thing as the Explorer is amon
	2008 Porsche Cayenne The Cayenne is Porsche's only SUV model, and it's now Porsche's best-selling vehicle in the North American market. For 2008, the base Cayenne model gets a revamped direct-injection version of its V-6 that makes 290 horsepower--43
