Default Help me pic my SUV

Ok I have to buy an SUV to pull a boat. Which one would you pick and why?

1999 Escallade
2000 Navigator
1996 Landcruiser
1998 Range Rover
1998 4runner

This vehicle will also replace my current daily driver and will be used occasionally to take out clients and visiting corporate VP's.

I looked up reviews for all four and then decided to stick with Nav. and Escalade because they are newer.
Navigator is quicker as far as Hp goes, it looks better IMO (because the 99 escalade looks like a tahoe or suburban) AND, on some random site i looked at, it said all V8 Escalades tow 3000lbs while Navigators tow 8000 lbs.

though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

if you want them to feel comfortable and pampered, the escallade or
navigator would be the choice

preferably escallade, because cadillac just has a more "classy" feel to it
