When this is over I would like to look at getting a new SUV. I am currently driving a Chevy Trailblazer but the backseat legroom is not great. Any suggestions?

I downsized from a Suburban to an Acadia and I love it. I drove Suburbans for over 20 years and thought I'd miss the room and muscle, but, man, I love pulling in to any parking space I want!
Sometimes trips to Costco require a bit of Tetrising to get everything home if I've picked up bulky stuff (especially if I've forgotten to take out sports gear), but I love the Acadia.
I do wish the car came in more colors. In 2017, it (the Denali model, anyway) came in three shades of gray/black, three shades of cream/white, and a red. Boooooooring.
Have fun shopping for your new car! Oh, and get SiriusXM!

I downsized from a Chevy Tahoe to a Ford Edge a couple of years ago, and it’s been a great car. We’ve taken long road trips, including LA to Canada. The back seat is very roomy and comfortable for four adults to travel, leaving plenty of room for luggage and other gear in the back. For the same price as basic models of other similar-sized SUVs, I was able to get a fully-loaded luxury model in the Ford. I wanted leather seats, but not black, and mine has light leather seats, a really pretty interior. My mechanic is the one who originally recommended it.

We have a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The leg room in the back is really good. We had both kids here for Christmas and they even commented how good it was. And because it’s a Grand Cherokee, the cargo space is good as well.

I got a VW Tiguan last summer, and it has very roomy leg room. There’s also a size up from this called the Atlas. But I have been more than happy with the Tiguan.
