And the final middle-ground item we'll mention was the "XM Satellite ready" radio. It's certainly a tidy way of getting XM into your vehicle, but it will cost you $400 to hook it up, and if you're not willing or able to cough that up, you get to be taunted by the XM option on your radio every time you turn it on. On our "no like" list were mostly minor indiscretions, such as: how sunlight could glare over the stereo display; how the steering mounted controls were not illuminated at night; how two sets of golf clubs would not easily go into the cargo area (with rear seat backs up); why there was no available power seats or telescopic steering; how the blanked-out items on the dash imparted an unfinished look; why there was no locking fuel door; and how the driver's seat tilt adjustment was needlessly tricky to lock into place. The only thing that went wrong was a rattle that developed during our last week with the vehicle, and the chrome piece that came loose around the gear selector. Otherwise, it was bulletproof. Fuel economy? Over our 18K run, it managed 10.9 L/100 km. So pretty much in the middle of its EnerGuide city and highway ratings of 12.4 and 9.3, respectively. That's thirstier than some other types of similarly sized people movers. So that may be the rub of the full-size 4x4: what the size gives you when it comes to safety, you will cost you a bit more at the pump. Dealership visits were painless. Oil and filter changes were stipulated and done every 6K (at $26.19 per shot, pre-tax). At 12K, a front and rear differential and transfer case service was called for, which ran $79.95 (pre-tax) for both labour and gear oil. A tire rotation also had to be done at 12K, which added another $16.95 (pretax). So there is a slight maintenance price to be paid as well for fulltime 4x4. And that's a wrap. The verdict among our jury of testers is that this particular long-term test was seat time well spent. It opened our eyes to the rightness of this package -- right size, right combination of 4x4 capability and comfort, right looks, and right value for the dollar. $ Lube, change oil and replace oil filter to keep your engine clean. Analyze the electrical charging-system. Tighten all drive belts and hose clamps if required. Inspect cooling system and steeringlinkage components. Inspect front and rear brakes. *Top ups extra.
