Overall it's drives excellent and handles the road almost as good as the hummer. It's different and you won't see everyone with it. When your driving through the city everyone knows this person has style, class and must be extremely wealthy and powerful. It's a beauty well worth the money. Did I mention the package that this beauty comes with, forget about it!! it's to die for, you can't go wrong. It's better than a lease... You'll never know or understand what I mean until you either test drive it or hell, " just go buy one and feel the comfort and enjoyment me and my wife feel each and every day. Take Care, Andy

This is a car you always wanted or a car you can’t understand why people buy. I think these cars are amazing. It’s a military tool used in civilian life so it won’t be as refined as other lux SUV’s but people don’t use this for what it’s intended purpose is. Great cars if you want one buy one.

Overrated car

It's a fun car, I would not think of buying another though. I truly think its overrated. For an SUV it's too fancy, but it has great on road handling.

This is a weird car, but I love it. It is solid, mighty and odd, but it commands attention, it is safe, and you get a workout while you drive it. It isn't for everyone, it takes time to get used to and the mileage is awful. But it is the best car I have ever driven. Only fault besides mileage is middle seat needs a shoulder seatbelt and not just a lep belt.
