for example americans reagard the mazda tribute/ ford escape as a small SUV but in australia we think its midsize
every car in oz we regard it as a size bigger than in america

well we call the mazda tribute a compact then cars like the mercedes m-class or bmw x5 would be midsize then cars like the ford expedition and chevrolet tahoe are full size and i refer to the suburban as like an extra large or you can also just call it a full size. (just a larger full size.)

I call the Burban and the Excursion school buses.
I'm not kidding...
I drove the Excursion...
It felt like a school bus...
And the extended TBlazer is a limo...

^haha!
Now come drive down the freeway at 75mph with the school buses right next to you lol. And a limo sitting on your ass flashing his lights lol
Suburban and excursion is extra large
F-150 and Silverado are Full-Sized Pickups, Ford Ranger and Chevy Colorado are small size pickups lol

Man, in the five years I've been working there, this is the FIRST Suburban I have seen come across our way. It's from the other side of the country.
The ride is good and it sits lower than I expected. The V8 sounds good too.

And its a rental? was it the LS, LT or LTZ =O
The 5.3 V8 is kinda weak though. Even in the Tahoe the performance just sucked.
