Never thought of an SUV as a work truck but maybe we do.  

My brother used his Suburban like a truck at the farm.  He used it pull trailers, hay wagons, and to haul his tools and small amounts of hay.

Thanks for all the replies and advice...the vehicle I was looking at is a 2013 Yukon, 61,000K on it, beautiful and fully loaded for 23K.

After seeing all your reviews I may just keep my Pathfinder a while, it's running good, besides probably passed the point of a good trade-in price.

I might just save up the coins a bit and look into a 4 runner or Pilot in a newer model.  The Yukon may be a bit too much vehicle for what I need-just back and forth to work.

Ours is pretty much a family hauler.  My ford does whatever I need a pick up to do but I am not a farmer so you may be right.

anyone i know of loved their Pathfinder in hindsight and never should've sold it. i don't know about their longevity but any vehicle maintained well lasts if it's been good that long.  we always looked for less bells and whistles to run a vehicle up for mileage.

Tahoe! I've owned 3. All have had over 200k when I was done! Trade in value was still decent too! Just don't pull a tractor with it! It doesn't like that

My personal luck with American is that I've found them too expensive and unreliable. Tundras are built in good old Texas.

but other than the bad frames (that Toyota stood behind)

Man, I wish Jeep would have done that!

Over the last 8 years between my wife an i we have owned a 2005 Nissan Xterra, 2014 Nissan rogue, 2017 Nissan Murano, and I got a 2017 Nissan Titan last March.
Before I picked up the titan I had an 09 trailblazer that nickel.and dimed me to death once i hit 100,000. Finally was sick and tired of always repairing it so I finally parted was with it around 149,000.
We couldn't be more happier owning anything but a Nissan. Knock on wood all has been good with out last few vehicles.

As I said, I love Chevy, my 2002 2500HD with the big 8.1 liter has treated me well but I only have 50K miles on it. I had it undercoated the day I drove off the show room. It's stored in a heated garage and it doesn't get driven in winter. There's not a person around driving a 2002 Chevy that's rust free except me. There are tons of 02 Honda and Toyota's that are rust free. I just don't think Ford ,Chevy,or dodge can touch any Honda or Toyota for body and mechanical longevity....

My daily driver is a 1999 Honda accord with 135K that is just starting to show rust on the wheel well.. I'll take the wardens 11 pilot and she'll get a new one come spring.
