A "Cruzer"

A great vehicle where you get the best of both, a reliable every day vehicle with plenty of safety features that can also carry items you prefer not to put into a passenger vehicle. Great handling and smooth ride and affordably priced.

The size of the bed may not have to payload capacity of the quarter ton options but it is functional with enough space to transport larger items.

If you dont need to tow ,base engine is fine.

Bought a base engine AWD q year ago. Live at 5,000 elevation and often travel up to 10,000 to fish and camp. Zero low power issues there or on the HWY. ' Course I have no need to be 1st in line, jockey for a new pole position. If you dont need to tow ,the 191 HP base engine is fine. Overall very pleased at 11k miles.
