What company car should I get?

I'm in the process of picking out a new company car. Right now I'm driving a 2001 GMC Yukon Denali with 143,000 miles on it. I want to get rid of it while it still has some value to it, before something major goes wrong with it.

I do outside sales for a kitchen and bath distribution company, so the new car needs to have cargo space for literature, large stainless steel sinks, one piece toilets, etc.

My projected price range is about 35k-45k. Preferably a SUV. I'd also like 4WD.

That's totally funny, you saw that he asked for larger vehicles and then listed a bunch of small ones, what a clever, witty response!

/sarcasm

Edit: I don't see why the Tribeca wouldn't be an option, the new one is infinitely less hideous than the last one and fits the requirements you mentioned.

EDIT: How about this: Did you like your last SUV? What did you like/dislike about it? Would you buy another just like it again?
I dont need it, but I do go to the snow so having 4WD would be a plus.

How big of a SUV do you need?

Nissan:
If you can go big, take a look at the Nissan Armada. If you want to go smaller, go with the Pathfinder or Xterra.

Toyota:
Sequoia

This is a company car. So my money will not be spent. I also put about 1000miles per week on the car. With any type of mods like that it would be a waste. I like your thinking though.
