This vehicle has performed very well, as far as road conditions and weather , the vehicle can make it through almost anything. Starts up even when its below freezing outside. One of the most reliable vehicles I have ever owned. The sturdy exterior and shock system handle bumpy country roads will vast control. In the winter the 4-wheel drive and V8 motor keeps the vehicle trekking on even in the worst conditions. The leather interior is also a bonus especially if this is going to be used as a family car. The easy to wipe off and clean up leather is a bonus. The stereo system also has its perks with great sound quality and the ability for flip down television for the children in the back of the car makes this vehicle even more useful and reliable for family vacations. This Is truly a family car that will be dependable as long as you manage and take care of the vehicle. One thing I would consider changing is the back window wind shield wipers people steal them and break them off all the time, they need to be more durable or at least more cheaply replaceable.
