I ordered this 2011 vehicle new close to the last possible date for doing so prior to the arrival of the 2012's.I live in cottage country and wanted to buy a domestic vehicle to provide a wide variety of functions:handle rough gravel roads in Summer, deep muddy and wet roads in Spring and heavy snow-covered and often icey roads in Winter; easily tow various trailers and boats weighing 4000 lbs plus; carry large cargo loads as required with the seats folded down and up to 7 passengers withe seats up; provide a comfortable vehicle while travelling extensively through Canada and the US while looking good doing so.
Having gone through all the seasons and with 30,000 km, this vehicle has fit the bill. It handles well, is comfortable, good looking and so far mechanically sound.(nothing but oil changes and tire rotations.The only slight downside is the approx 20 mpg which was not entirely unexpected.
I would recommend this vehicle and would buy another.
