...second vehicle, pros & cons? I just bought a house and will also continue my family tradition of doing woodworking (as a hobby), so I need a V8 truck or SUV to be able to haul wood and other do it yourself things around. I'm debating between the American full sized pick ups and SUVs (I won't be driving this thing everyday), and it will be a few years old (don't have a ton of money), but which do you think is better and will be more useful as well as practical, I'm tempted to get the Chevrolet Avalanche, but then I think about the Dodge Ram 1500, or could I get the most use out of a Ford Expedition, help me out here, thanks.
