Very happy with my vehicle. It has lots of room inside for family and friends.
Drives very smoothly. It's very large and very comfortable. Just basic repair work. Very large truck for traveling it's very helpful. Leather interior its very comfortable. The Ac work perfect. The engine is 8 cylinder so it has a lot of pick up and go.

My car has fake wood trim in interior so my daughter named the car Woody
Car has low mileage. Is comfortable, leather seats, fully electric adjustments. Has body rust, sprayed undercarriage to prevent further rust issues. Generally smooth ride, needs some minor work but nothing serious. Maintain basic maintenance best as I can

The only problems i have are the back calibers are frozen. And the ABS needs done. Other then that. It runs and drive. I've done most brake work and rotors pads oil radiator fluids been changed. It only has 114, mils on it and its easy to fix. My radio gave out and speakers front don't work. Backs some do. But i think it is the amp in car that is the main problem in this car. Everything else works. Know im ready to trade it in for a used truck.
