[s-cars] Work vehicle advice needed

I's surprised no one suggested Hummer.  Even the H2 is a capable and
stable tow vehicle as well as a comfortable ride for passengers and  
driver.
They are generally cheaper than the mega-pickups, and if you are in
a business deal they are a good advertising platform  as well.

The original deal here was the $29K Dubya Investment tax credit for each
vehicle, but hey, it was still a great vehicle.

I advise caution in the mega-pickup market.  Those equipped for heavy
  towing are frequently used commercially.  I'm not sure I would want a
  rodeo cowboy's truck either.  :-)
