Pros

Sleek, fast, sporty truck, BMW

Cons

The leather seats were kiind of rough.

Smooth — I almost bought one of these last year. It was on sale at the local Acura dealership. I took it out for a test drive, and with 60,000 miles on it it still drove smooth and quiet as heck. Very nice car. I will get one eventually.
