I totally agree. And the V6 provides a good amount of power without trading off fuel economy, as long as it`s tuned right. I just wish they had given us a stick-shift option in the four-door! Oh well...

I don't like the "huge" SUV's like the Chevy Suburban or Toyota Armada because they're just so big and useless. there low to the ground so they can only go on small trails and roads, I like the small s10's and little SUV's which have purpose and can do almost anything, with little or no modification.

I'm not from any city and have lived most of my life in and around forest, desert and mountain areas and have been at more crash scenes to know that some of these in fact do work, not all of them are created right, and not all people know how too install them properly, there is actually a left and a right , well at least in the good ones.
It is a fact that these "at certain speeds" produce a sound so unusual too deer that they will stand still until they can identify weather or not the sound is a threat too them, they are not meant to "chase" the deer away but they confuse the deer, when he can't figure out what direction too run in they will stand still instead of running INTO danger, by the time they realize which way too run the car has passed them by.
I've used themsince they were invented and do a lot of traveling in the National parks and have never encountered a moving deer while they were in use, I've driven past hundreds of them standing by the side of the road just watching me go on by and not a one has ever ran in my direction.
We all have our own opinions and mine is based on many years or observation and what I see at crash sites (as an Emt) when any car has hit a deerwhile sporting these warnings,the warnings were installed improperly, there are details in installing them that many people are unaware of such as, they must be on a flat surface of the car, not facing up or down on a curved bumper, they must be a certain distance apart and have too be facing forward even a slight twist of even one of them will render them usless, they must be kept clear of salt, dirt, snow, ice, I think your getting the picture by now.
They in fact do work but your entitled too your opinion, any failure of these to protect a driver from striking a deer is always traced back that they did NOT install them right, I'm thinking this has happened too you and this is why your making such a statement?
thanks for your opinion though.
