Bought the car this past summer (2012) and fell in love the second I drove it. I adapted right away to the style of ride. It was like I had owned the vehicle for 2 years already. It's not a racing vehicle, thats for sure, but I love the power the engine has, after all, this is a 3000lbs SUV. I get an average of 300km/tank and at 99.9 (gas price) it costs about $65 from empty. The only thing I don't like about this car is that the transmission is a little clunky (That could just be my Jeep).
