Har.

(Wife loves Suburban) + (Cost(25-30mpg vehicle that can tow a smallish boat)) = (years and years before fiscal gain realized) + (unhappy wife)

Monetarily, I'd lose out on any smaller, more efficient car that I would trust for many years before the fuel cost caught up. So, I'm left with 'what's the best I can get out of what we have?'
