FOR OVERALL RELIABILITY I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SUV. IT HAS A PROVEN TRACK RECORD IN OFFROAD DRIVING AND DRIVING IN INCLIMATE WEATHER. I HAVE A BIT OF A PHOBEA WHEN IT COMES TO DRIVING IN SNOW AND RAIN. THIS JEEP DID NOT DISAPPOINT. IT HANDLES VERY WELL AND IS MECHANICALLY SOUND. FOR AN SUV ITS GAS MILEAGE IS MANAGABLE, IT COULD POSSIBLE BE BETTER BUT IT IS ACCEPTABLE FOR THE TRADE OFF OF FEELING SAFE DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER. THE INTERIOR IS ROOMY AND COMPORTABLE WITH MORE THAN ADAQUATE CARGO SPACE. IT IS A MEDIUM SIZED SUV. I DON’T FEEL LIKE I AM DRIVING A BULLDOZER IN THIS SUV AS I DID WHEN I TEST DROVE SOME OTHER SUVS. IT HAS CHILD SAFTEY FEATURES WHICH IS ALWAYS A PLUS. I HAVE KEYLESS ENTRY AND AUTO START WHICH IS WONDERFUL ON REALLY HOT OR COLD DAYS. MINE ALSO HAS TINED WINDOWS THAT REALLY CUTS DOWN OF THE HEAT AND GLARE OF THE HOT SUN.
