Default SUV or SUT

Looking to buy an H2 in the very near future. Trying to decide between the suv or sut. I can't believe this has become such a hard choice for me. Going to the H2 from an Avalanche and an Excursion. Used to having the best of both. Any help would be great. Thanx

What was more convenient for you to use? The Excursion or the Avalance? Aside from that, there is no real difference. It is easier to load groceries into an SUV, but it is easier to haul a lawnmower in the SUT.

It really isn't a matter of which was easier. Each had their niche. Avalanche's bed area was a lot more usable then the sut's would be. Excursion just had it's size. Sometimes good others bad. At least it was a diesel

Also it seems from looking at pics of lifted h2's the sut's look a little nicer and more level.

I like the way the SUTs look a little better than the SUVs, but the SUV is more practical for me when I go on camping trips where I can stack four big rigid plastic tubs in the back and have everything I may possible need for a long trip inside the vehicle. I like that better than stacking it on top the roof, but, even if I did that, the roof rack on the SUV is bigger. I also like the fact that I have the third-row seat, though I admit I've never used it yet. If you need to haul a lot of dirt or rocks, the SUT would be better. I was thinking of getting a little trailer for that kind of think and just keeping it in the backyard.

My last vehicle was an Avalanche. It was a lot more usable than my SUT. But the SUT just looks.

SUT all the way.

Really, you win either way.

Thanx for the replies. I agree with C O T, either way i have an H2. If I went with the SUT it wouldn't be because I needed a small truck bed area. Have a trailer or can always borrow a truck. I guess maybe it just comes down to looks. I am going to buy black and the nicest lifted black ones I have seen so far have been SUT's. I guess however if I am not in need of the bed I should go SUV and take advantage of the interior space.

Both my father and I came out of Avalanches into the hummers. I got the 06SUV and he got the 06SUT. He wanted the truck bed since he like to haul stuff like dog food and chicken food. I have a sierra pickup also so i didnt need the truck bed and the SUV is one heck of alot more convenient when travelling. Looks like i like both, my wife doesnt like the looks of the SUT.
