We own an 01 XLS since brand spanking new and zero miles and by far the best vehicle I have ever owned. It is not used for off road but it has not let us down when we took it to our beach vacations and sand was the obstacle. Neither let us down during the the ice and snow storms here in the good ol' south (GA). My neighbors were <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> when we went up and down our street with no problems.

We love it.
