I love this car!!!!Source: Cars.com...the car handles well, I am getting great mileage and already paying so much less in gas than I did with the Volvo wagon that I am so happy.I am wondering how the car will hold up in the snow once winter arrives, but so far it has done quite well in heavy rain so that has worked out well (the Volvo slid and fishtailed even in rain, forget the snow!).My children love the third row of seats and I appreciate that it is so easy to fold the seats up and down, as well as to replace the middle section of the second row.My only complaint so far is that the rear door doesn't always close right away.

great suvSource: Cars.com...could get more in econo mode but the vehicle feels less responsive to throttle wich makes sense..less gas..but you have to constantly monitor the fuel consumption monitor..if you do you can get closer to 27mpg in mixed driving..power liftgate is great when juggling items..only draw back i found was winter driving...very poor in dep snow..rear wheels rarely engaged when trying to get out of deep or moderate piles of snow..once you're up and going it handles pretty well..very nice package just wished it performed better in winter living in the northeast.."... |

4x4 Hybrid for 7Source: MSN Autos...I was driving a 2001 Suburban and did not like the 13MPG combined. I am getting 25+ MPG so far and it seems to be getting better on each fill up. If you want to pass someone on the highway, this is a rocket ship. The acceleration is awesome. We have 3 kids and an occasional friend or two so the 3 row seats are a plus. The split rear seats are helpful. We went for the Limited so it has the awesome Nav, heated leather, BlueTooth, voice commands, sunroof, etc... Great car. Cons: Hybrid Limited was spendy, but with gas prices rising, wanting 7 passenger seating, needing 4x4 (we live in snow... |
