Not perfect but very good

I've now had the car for 2 months and still find it very nice to drive - very quiet and smooth. It does have some problems though. The transmission does not downshift smoothly, ever. The AWD system is rather poor in snow - too much torque goes to the rear wheels making hills a real challenge that my previous Blazer ate up like butter. I find the braking and handling are quite good for an SUV even in emergency manuevers. All in all, a very good highway cruiser.
Comfy ride

I haven't had it long. I had a 96 Blazer before moving up to this SUV. It is very comfortable and handles well. It has a lot of luxury features the my other SUV did not have. It is quiet. You don't hear a lot of extra road noise. It is a very smooth riding vehicle. I love it!

I've had my Rainier for 6 mos. now and am EXTREMELY satisfied with it. It's powerful, smooth, and quiet. The engine is terrific delivering good torque from a standstill. It's 50-70 mph acceleration is good as well. Fuel economy has been good for an SUV, about 19 mpg combined city/hwy. It also has been incredibly smooth and quiet, the most car-like ride I've experienced from the various SUVs I've test driven. I had a Toyota 4Runner before and was going to buy another or a Nissan Pathfinder before a friend suggested I look at the Rainier. I was skeptical at first, but after looking at it and test driving it, I was convinced.

I love the handling of this SUV. I've only owned it over a month but I've already put over 1500 miles on it. The easy exit seat button is great especially when you have packages that you just grab off the seat next to you, you don't have to fight around the steering wheel to get them by it. Both of my boys are over six foot tall and when we were trying out SUV's, head room and leg room was a huge factor. They picked this one as the the most comfortable back seat of all.
