 Extremely reliable, relatively 
comfortable, superb handling, and good 
performance for a V6.  Only flat spot 
has been brakes (warped rotors repaired 
2x under warranty).  Really shines off-
road (and this one regularly goes way 
off-road), & we haven't found the stiff 
suspension & AT tires to be as jarring 
for in-town use as we thought we 
might.  Great versatile vehicle if you 
need something for 'mom' type use, as 
well as driving over rocks & through 
canyons in semi-arid west Texas.
