Drives smooth, the auto shifts quick, easy and quietly. Hugs the road curves beautifully. Never feels out of control. The AWD has saved my bacon twice already once at the boat launch and today in the snow when I slipped off a curb.

I would love better gas use... but given its larger size the fuel economy is still about as good as the competition.

All in all I'm still very happy with my choice. I had considered the 2013 Nissan Path Finder and the GMC Acadia but Path Finder reported two many trans problems for 2013 and Acadia was too expensive to get same equipment(options).
