I firmly believe a large SUV is very suitable for towing and still allows for more than 4 passengers. But paying attention to capacities is really important. The limits to look at first is the cargo carrying capacity and max hitch weight with a WDH(weight distrib hitch). These 2 capacities will usually determine the max weights of the TT you should get.
On longer trips, I really like to bring along my niece and her 2 kids about the same age as mine. I couldn't do that with a pickup.
The downside of a large SUV for daily driving is the cost. I pretty much keep storage insurance on mine until I need it for a trip. I love driving it and sometimes I just go out to the polebarn and visit it. Only 35 more days until spring.
