Great Family Vehicle That Drives Like A Car 1/2 Its Size — I really love this car. The gas mileage is the only downside, though all cars in this size category have pretty bad MPGs. I'm 6'4" and this is one of the most comfortable cars I have driven for both myself and the people sitting behind me. Love the blind spot monitoring also.

Pros: Very comfortable, high-end interior. Handles extremely well for a large car.

Cons: Gas mileage is lackluster. Back up camera isn't great.

Overall:

Family Oriented Car, Instead Of A Van (family With 3 To 4 Kids) — Likes: Good driving and V6 engine, 7 places, cargo space if needed for shopping, design more related to female/family oriented. Dislikes: Don't like the main console, to simple and not too much info as related competition, design seems more like a big hatchback than SUV, fuel consumption is not too good, bellow the manufacturer indications.

Primary Use: Family transportation

Pros: Good driving and V6 engine, 7 places, cargo space if needed for shopping, design more related to female/family oriented.

Cons: Don't like the main console, to simple and not too much info as related competition, design seems more like a big hatchback than SUV, fuel consumption is not too good, bellow the manufacturer indications.
