The 5th gen has 80 more hp's but weighs more too. long distance driving trips etc are much more comfortable for the family in the 5th and the wife prefers it. Also it tows the travel trailer better. Don't want to start a 3rd Gen vs 5th gen debate. The 3rd Gen is easier to work on for sure.

It's a good point about the weight. You don't realize how much bigger the 5th gen is until you see them side by side or drive them back to back. The 5th gen is about 800lbs heavier in curb weight (depending on models). Here are my 2 (2002 and 2020)
