A station wagon (essentially the same vehicle, but not as tall), or a minivan could do the same, surely? The only thing an SUV is better at than those vehicles is some serious offroading

Even then, SUVs and pickup trucks are poor choices for off-roading, due to being extremely heavy and having long wheelbases. For driving on dirt roads, they're fine, but then so is a station wagon.
