This truck is optimal for a family vehicle without feeling like you're in a mini van. The gas mileage is good for an SUV. It has 3rd row searing with the option to remove the seats. The power is a main attraction to it. I enjoy the comfort of the adjustable seats and that you are allowed to save your seat settings. This way I'm not always fussing about how my husband moved my seat. All I have to do is press one and it resumes my setting. The rear dvd system is a huge plus for kids. I feel very safe when driving this vehicle.
