General Comments:
This vehicle burns oil and so I need to change more frequently.
This vehicle is a bit smokey during seasonal/temperature changes.
The vehicle is excellent in the snow.
Rust has presented itself on the rear door latches and some of the trim features.
I have driven cross country at least 4 times and the ride is actually decent for a SUV.
I do not like the fact that I cannot check my transmission fluid.
