 Comments

 Favorite feature:

quiet interior,great ride, good power, not a lot on the road so you stand out more

 Least favorite feature:

i got the 2 wheel drive, should have got the awd

 Advice to buyer:

get the awd for winter driving though for 2wd it does have locking differential and tractioncontrol

 Detailed review:

drives great for an SUV. averaging 18.6 mpg with the inline 6. has good power, isn't too noisy. does get buffeted by the wind on the highway but it's an SUV not a sleek sports car. a bit too much wind noise but overall am very impressed with the quality. the 2005 models address the few weakness's i see with my 04. 04 instument panel is cheap looking( 05 looks great)and shift nob on 04 looks cheap(05 looks great). arm rest cover on 04 made of rubber, 05 is leather.
