General comments?
All in all a GREAT SUV. It's a truck based suspension so snow and offroading can be done seriously in this SUV unlike many crossover SUVs out there. 4WD system is great, it's like snow isn't even there at all. Plus there's plenty of room whether you're in the front or back. Cargo area is huge, especially if you lower the back seat. Wish it was a 7 seater, but overall it's a great truck for the money. The way it's going right now it seems it'll last for many more years to come.
