Tend to have some electrical issues. We have had 2 and will likely always own one. Do not expect a Range Rover type of vehicle. It is very much a truck.

Awesome car (or more accurately truck), feels like you're driving a tank. Gotta agree with traumadoc with regards to the electrical issues though. I've had problems with the seats and passenger side mirror when backing up.
