This is a solid "truck" with a great history of durability and reliability.
V8 has exc. torque and HP. 5-speed Auto is very smooth. Full-time AWD with shift on the fly locking center differential for 4WD and low speed transfer case. ATRAC for extreme off road conditions. 7300 lb. towing capacity. Truly off-road capable truck.
Everything from the seating surfaces to carpets to plastics to switches is of high quality. Not fancy, but good stuff. Heavy duty frame, solid body construction, no rattles.
You sit up high with a commanding view of everything around you. Not perfect, as the roof line is a little low, but far greater than the FJ Cruiser and any Hummer from the front seat and beyond comparison from the back seat.
