Pros & ConsiderationsWhat buyers tend to like:
Strong V6 power, especially when towing or climbing hills
Spacious interior, especially first and second rows; plenty of cargo space when folding down rear seats
The AWD (4MOTION) gives good traction in adverse weather or light off-road / dirt / snow usage
Lots of comfort and convenience features on SE that make it feel well-equipped
What to keep in mind:
The fuel economy is modest (17/23 mpg) due to the size and V6 engine
Size can make maneuvering in tight urban or parking situations more challenging
Owning costs (tires, maintenance) may be higher than smaller SUVs
