Strong V8 engine offers a ton of power.Remarkable off-road capabilities.Luxurious passenger cabin with high-quality materials.Plenty of headroom.Generous amount of cargo space behind the rear seat.Full-time four-wheel drive is always ready for changing weather and terrain.Vault-like construction.Innovative seven-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters offers more control.Timeless exterior styling.Long list of standard safety features.Comfortable and supportive seats.Extremely smooth ride.
Large turning circle makes parking and maneuvering a challenge.Tall roof height does not help with confidence while cornering.Steering is quite slow because it is designed for off-road use.Humps in floor make it impossible to haul wide cargo.Rear seat could use a little more legroom.Leather is the only material available.Awkward placement of cup holders.Some controls feel out of reach.COMAND interface is dated and fussy.Rear seat entertainment is not available.Horrible fuel-economy at 12 mpg in the city and 15 mpg on the highway.High MSRP is out of the budget of most consumers.No crash test ratings are available.
