3000 miles and looking good

Studied, studied, test drove them all MDX, BMW,RX330...this baby is no mistake. Quiet ride, solid build, a little feel of the road, but extrordinarily comfortable. Handles easily and the wife loves it. Great field of vision. Mirrors are wide and effective. Rear and side vision is excellent. Incredible stopping ability. Much more than I expected. Tested both the T6 and T5, trust me, unless you're pulling a planet at 80 mph, stick with the T5. The 5 speed trans makes a huge difference. The "around town" drive is great with the 5, and it's plenty on the road. All based on the 1st 3000 miles, combined MPG 17.9, 60% highway, 40%

This car is really cool to look at, but more importantly so safe! It drives so well and is so sturdy on the highway. Even in windy conditions or passing a truck, it hugs the road and never blows around. It has lots of interior room and is very comfortable.

Love this car. It's built like a tank but feels more like a sports car. Comfortable and easy to drive.

How Swede it is

In car-crazy Southern California, this stands out from all the rest. Color (a green metallic that I did not think I'd like and actually love) wheels, and overall style all catch the eye of my freeway companions. It's pretty zippy, although for really fast get-up-and-go I wish I'd sprung for the T6, but I don't eat as much gas in the T5 and it's quick enough for most of my driving.

Lease is up and we are buying this vehicle. Absolute pleasure the last 39 months. Timeless style and great performance. What more could you ask for.
