Don't expect a Lexus ride with this truck. She is amazing in the snow, heavy rain etc. You feel very safe- however any more than four people will be very cramped. The cup holders leave the radio and all temp controls unusable. Quirky placement of controls are annoying.Gas cap and glove compartment latches fail ALOT! Would buy again-not for a family.

This car is absolutely ridiculous. The gas mileage is dismal at best, the V8 has no power, and things keep going wrong. This was a bad decision. And its not big stuff- electrical problems, seats won't raise, sunroof stuck, engine vibration. But it's so hard to diagnose and expensive to fix!!! Run away!

I purchased this usedwith low miles. In 4 months I have replaced the head gasket, wiper knob, and front drive shaft for a total of $3000. Now they want $1700 for a new water pump. I've owned just about every make of vehicle and I can honestly say this is by far the worst ever. I'm getting an Acura MDX.

This is my first foreign car ever; I recently sold my 3rd Gen Camaro for this truck. I have owned her for about 3 months and have put well over 5,000 miles on her. Yes, parts are a bit more expensive so do some research online for different parts and see if it is up to your budget. If not, than this vehicle isn’t going to be for you anyways. It has many quirky buttons, positions of where the buttons are and there are some interesting flaws of the design. However, for the size of the vehicle it’s not all bad and it does handle much better than other SUVs I have owned in the past. It’s a great truck, but I would bet that a person who knows about working on cars may enjoy it more like me!

Small interior. bad gas mileage. Long turn-radius. Electrical issues. Minor and major engine issues. The list goes on and on. I felt sorry selling it to someone.
