Best cars for criminals?

Ok so I have noticed that in Mexico, drug runners have moved from semi luxurious pickup trucks and SUV's to Cross over vehicles ( Mazda C x7, Chevy traverse, Acura zdx, VW Touareg etc) for their drug running & smuggling operations (street level members still get crappy pick ups or normal sedans, bosses still have their luxury cars) Anyways.. WHY WOULD YOU USE CROSSOVERS TO DO MAFIA STUFF? DO THEY BLEND IN AT CITIES? GAS ECONOMY? DO THEY HAVE TO DROP OFF THE KIDS AT THE SOCCER GAME BEFORE A SHOOTING???
