Excellent ride quality over varying terrain.

A lot of advanced tech and safety features.

The digital computer screen is worthless a big part of the time to me.

I drive long distances to visit friends, and it's nice to have a nice car, but you need something to keep you awake while driving. Bluetooth has never worked, and the computer screen goes black often.

Also, the entertainment package is minimal. I have to look at the big circular speedometer. This has to be the only new models on the road that doesn't have a digital readout for speed. The big negative in this car, which is a very big negative for me, is the digital readouts. The exterior is white and really snazzy looking even though it doesn't have a lot of chrome trim like the higher models do. Great handling, very nice black fabric interior. The SUV, I will admit, drives nicely, not like a truck at all. I ended up buying a Nissan (I never would have bought one if I hadn't gone with him because the Nissans I've ridden in, all rode like trucks) but a basic no-frills model. I bought a Nissan Rogue because I recently moved to Florida where about 80% of all cars are foreign, and my friend had just bought one so he took me to the dealership to look.
