 We have used the vehicle primarily 
for family vacations, which involve 
camping, skiing, kayaking, and 
hiking. We did get the non-slip 
differential which was very helpful in 
winter conditions. The fuel "economy' 
leaves something to be desired. For 
the size it handles quite well on the 
highway and is fairly quiet. We have 
had on cylinder head replaced, but 
we do drive the 5.4L hard and do 
tend to load the vehicle down with 
camping or skiing gear for as many 
as 7.
