@@teedee5983 Terrible lol. I get little less than 12mpg with mostly city driving, on a long road trip I got a little better than 16mpg, so yeah it's no Prius but fuel economy might be it's only con. It's big enough to carry a family of 4 and all our stuff to extracurricular activities like the beach, small enough to fit into compact parking spaces with room to spare (about the same length as a honda civic sedan), it's as quiet and comfortable as a Lexus GS sedan, it can tow 7000lbs, it's reliable as a quartz clock, and it's as capable off road as any other Land Cruiser truck. Gas mileage may be a bit better with the tires that the one in this video was wearing than what I average, I have light all-terrain tires on mine which lower mpg slightly.

absolutely don't want light color interior if you have kids. You absolutely want dark interior. YOU have it backwards. And you didn't even explain why light interior is better for kids, which it's not.

@everycarSeattle 4 жыл бұрын

We go through cars like normal people go through shoes and we have three kids. Light interiors make the interior feel more open, more spacious. Dark interiors are hotter when you first get in (especially here in Hawaii) and the drive gets started off on the wrong foot. For me, I like small, really fast cars with black leather seats, pretty much every single time. For the family we like big comfy rigs with light interior because it's a more cheerful and comfortable experience as a family. Not every family feels that way, but at the dealership I rarely heard a kid say they wanted black interior on an SUV, like never in fact. The parents wanted it because their kids were messy, but that part is on the parents.
