Wow, a serious question?

 

I had one as a rental a couple of years ago and almost bought after that- Comfortable for me ( 6' 2" 210), plenty of room for kids, decent mileage, allegedly a good snow car. I ended not buying one because of the towing capabilities- I needed to be able to tow my boat all over the country side and it was suggested that it was too heavy for the AWD system.

Brian> Two months ago, I bought a 2005 AWD Limited w/ 45000 miles on it. It's mostly for my wife to drive but I've taken it on a few long drives. Handles very nicely for a fairly large AWD SUV style buggy. Another concern about towing would be the engine. IMO the 3 liter Duratech is a bit too little for this size crossover. However, coupled to the CVT tranny (which took a little getting use to the no shift points) ......it does a respectable job of taking you down the road. Mileage is not that bad.....22.7 on mostly flat roads which include country & city. Seating (leather in the Limited) is quite comfortable. The seats (I think it's a option) are not heated which is an option that my wife misses (her good ol' Infiniti J30 has wicked good heated seats). By far, the most beloved feature is the onboard DVD system. My Grandkiddo thinks it's cool.gif !

"Lucky" is a fictional character on the interwebs. Nothing "Lucky" says or does can be or should be construed as a real thought by an actual person. Objects in your rear view mirror may appear to be closer than they actually are.
