Who makes the best minivan in SUV clothing?

In reply to mtn :

So what's your point?  Armadas are truck based too and have been mentioned several times.  If it does minivan stuff and its an SUV, it fits the bill

The Sequoia was definitely considered, but not chosen for the same reasons as the Armada. The frame based SUV’s make better trucks, which we liked but really didn’t need. The unibody crossover SUV’s are much better cars, and have much more efficient packaging inside. Just about all the car based platforms we checked out managed people space better than the truck based platforms, especially behind the second row. 

The new Explorer seemed to split the difference.
