It has 3rd row seating and gets good gas mileage. It has a very good interior and has lots of extra storage. It drives exceptionally well. Smooth drive. It is an older car so finding a few parts is difficult at times.
Large. Plenty of cargo space for carrying very long and very large boxes, carries large number of passengers comfortable in a 2/2/3 dressing attachment consisting id the rows, the decking row has a wallet in space to third row, fold down 3rd row, fold down seats. Comfortable ride in city, highways and country.
We have a family of 6 and the vehicle size is optimal. Not too big for parking in lots, but enough room on the inside for our family. I love the collapsible back seat that flatten out make an awesome space for camping on day trip or towing large supplies without having truck.
Great gas mileage. Roomie. Family friendly. Spacious. This car is great for big family's it is very roomie and can fit a lot of people. Great for traveling. I can fit many suitcases in the back. I really think this car would be perfect for grandparents that want to take their grandkids out on a road trip. Does not have leather seats so I will not burn myself.
They were only made a few years and are no longer in production so finding parts at times can be difficult. There is not a lot of trunk space with the 3rd row seating. The 3rd tow does fold down but if you need the seats there is not a lot of trunk space.
Low gas mileage on highway and also for city usage. Must get three front end alignment done about every 3 months. Brakes and risers seem to have to be changed at same time. The side mirrors must be placed further out to convert the blind spots due to length of vehicle.
The legroom in back row is tight and good for shorter people... Not adults just children. The sunroof and the water run off lines leak. When we have a bad storm the driver's seat and passenger seat floor are always soaked.
It is an old lady car. She has a broken windshield. My rear seat is broken and will not go down. You cannot park in compact parking. It is a boat. The front end is too long for my liking. They made it in an ugly tan color.
