29.5 mpg highway average is phenomenal for a 4,300 lb vehicle that is usually loaded to 5,000 lbs providing a highway range of 600 miles.
17 to 20 mpg while towing over 5,000 lb boat and trailer. Plenty of room for cooler and baggage in a reasonably sized vehicle. 500 lb tongue weight on trailer barely affects rear suspension.
Common Rail diesel engine is very quiet on the highway pulling steep inclines at 1,900 rpm without down-shifting. Very tight turning radius.
Brakes are well modulated with very good stopping and control. Vehicle is rock solid with no flexing or rattles.
