Our Navigator was always roomy enough for 7 or 8 easy. I'm sure the Expy should be just as roomy. The Navi had the 5.4 4v and it had plenty of power for towing my Cobra to the track on my 16ft. trailor...

Tahoe gets my vote...
Wife wants a new one when her commute gets cut in half next year. I'm okay with it to have another v-8 4x4 to drag the boat around with: the Kid, Dogs, and all of our crap. I'd drive one myself if I didn't use my truck bed 3-4 days a week.
Edit: My Kid doesn't mess my truck up and I clean it when we get out... My wife's current ride is always a mess, I clean it once a week on the interior for her just so I can stand to get in it. We were def raised differently... haha

It does need some stuff, the transfer case solenoid needs to be replaced which is normal on these trucks but oddly it still works most of the time, just gives a message after using 4wd that it needs service. It does burn a little oil, to the point where it's usually around 1qt low at oil change time. I had to replace the driver's leather seat bottom on it. The seat heaters have stopped working due to a short/burn in the element. I replaced the alternator/belt a month or so ago, they were original. Brakes got replaced last year... It's been a great SUV, I'm gonna miss it, but maybe I'll just buy myself one.
This is the part I replaced: [ame]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004GBAPC2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/ame]
And you need this seal as well: [ame]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0049OI3DE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/ame]
I was pretty happy that it was only a $57 fix..
I did go ahead and replace my selector switch as well, since those tend to go out too, and mine had a couple of lights burned out.
