The 4x4 Power. Added a Posi Rear and a Limited front and she pulled a 2002 Chevy Saburban out of a ditch no problem.
Least favorite feature:
Could have done with a option for a positraction rear end and alimitd slip front axle. But its not to hard to fix that.
Advice to buyer:
If you need a 4x4 that is a work horse a Rodeo will take the top.
Detailed review:
Test drove this as my second vehicle. Very nice handeling, LOTS of power at the rear wheels, nice pick up when you pass 'Floor it and she will LITERALY put you in the back seat. =:' and took it on the highway 'Good Handeling a bit of wind sounds.' Can be expected cause it is a 4x4. Went to the dealer and Bought it that day. Took it home and never had any major problems with it. Suggestions 'Made a custome Brushgaurd out of 1/2in steel. Heavy but safe. Also Hit a dear and minnor damage to front end 'Hit at 55 mph. Drove it to work the rest of the week.' Needs to be a tad higher stace off the ground bottoms out easy. optimal tires I have found p245/75/15. If you need a 4x4 Work Suv BUY THIS VEHICLE.
