 I have owned everything from Expeditions to Volvos and I am more pleased with this than any other.  The ride is great and at 6'4" and 300 lbs I am plenty comfortable.  Even the 4x2 handles very well off road and can get more places than larger 4x4s.  Great for traveling.  I have been from GA to WV, NY, and Key West with friends over summer vacation and we were all comfy.  Costs about $50 a tank to fill and I get about 365 miles to a tank.  One heck of a bang for your buck!! I will be buying another very soon.
