Pretty alright
By Gary | on 2/17/2025 12:45:51 AM
Very smooth, comfortable, quiet. However I do worry a bit about the 5 speed transmission on the V6. Already clunks a bit, but it doesn’t seem to be getting worse. No issues through 10k miles, just had to replace the water pump and thermostat housing which were both super easy. Find a V8, or a well-maintained V6, and you’ll love it. I’ll drive it until it’s a pile of rust.… - 4.0
