Acceleration pedal was gummy. That is you had to exert extra push power at the beginning of acceleration then back off as it suddenly surged.
A fine ride just short of luxurious.
A comfortable and spacious interior though a bit too much wind noise on the highway.
Braking is a dream. Many times I thought I was in trouble, but stopped gently, well short of the bumper of the guy in front of me.
Marveled at the powerful 6 ability to get off the line though the passing gear was a little disappointing at highway speeds.
View out the back window is really distorted and objects may be a lot closer than they are.
I agree, the braking system on this SUV is unbelievable. I knew for sure I was going to tag a guy in front of me, but somehow the car stopped. The seatbelt even left a bruise.
Note: The drums do get warped after awhile causing some vibration when braking, but my first set of pads did last 100K.
