Pros: "4 wheel drive system works great, smooth ride,"

Cons: "Electronics!!"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 5

"Owned this truck for 3 years now, and not a bad ride. Has gotten me through a few tough winters here in the mountains of North Carolina with no trouble at all. Smooth ride and ok mileage for a SUV. Pulled a trailer full of furniture from Fla and had to work hard to do it. Electronics are not good at all. Instrument panel gauges do their own thing, rarely accurate. Common problem on these, and replacement panel can run $450. Lights dim for no reason. Goes through bulbs all the time. But it starts and runs like a clock and is overall reliable."
