Yeah, many people with 4 wheel drive seem to forget that almost all
cars have 4 wheel stop.  But the slippery surface doesn't work so
well.  So SUV's usually have no advantage for stopping over other
cars.

They are actually at a disadvantage due to the extra much heavier GVW. Stopping distance is very much affected by the mass being stopped.
