Of the things we enjoyed the most, the six-speed transmission was at the top of the list. Coupled with the model’s 3.5-liter 235-horsepower engine, the transmission – and its manual shift feature – mastered the power output smoothly, offering prompt response to throttle input whether at a stop or while passing. The 3,525 lb.-weight of the vehicle diminished its motivation. All in all, it’s a slightly heavy yet capable performer that could use a touch more power, with a transmission that makes the drive more enjoyable. While that’s good news for Limited shoppers, it makes us wonder about the performance offered up in trims featuring four-cylinder engines and four-speed automatics.
