Safety and ability to drive manual and automatic.
It is super comfortable. I like the tiptronic feature and AWD. Dislike - not the best gas mileage.

It runs amazing, great air pump struts make ur car drive like butter.
I love the alert signals in the car. I love the leather. I hate the gas cost

Great family oriented features.
Good car, nice features. We get a lot of use out of the wall outlet in the back, and it is a great vehicle for camping or road trips. It gets less gas mileage than I'd like, and will know to consider that factor when purchasing my next vehicle.
