Comments
Favorite feature:	3rd row of seats
Least favorite feature:	Poor gas mileage. 18 mpg on the highway for a little truck, pretty poor
Advice to buyer:	Great car/truck alternative for those Subaru Outback lovers who need a bigger vehicle but can fit 7 in a pinch.
Detailed review:	Great acceleration (V6), tight turning radius, decent brakes, plenty of cargo room. Good fit and finish. Cigarette lighter recepticle pulled out from dash when I put a 2 to 1 splitter in there, questionable durability. Fuel economy has been horrible: I do all highway driving and have gotten 18-20mpg consistenly when driving around 75mph for long periods. I expected better. Gas guage takes a nose dive quickly around mid tank, and I can't tell how far I can drive before empty.
Also considered:	2005 Honda Pilot 2005 Honda Odyssey 2005 Toyota Sequoia
