I justed walked in the door after driving home from VT to Long Island
I've had mine since May 1st and already have almost 18K on her, many of which are road trips all over the place, and in a nutshell
HELL YES
My Limited has been a dream on long trips~ there are endless ways to position your seat and, speaking only from my experience driving a Limited w/ XREAS, the ride and even the handling and capabilities on the highway are most impressive. From what I've read here the TE and SR5 have a lot of nose-dive when braking etc...but I haven't driven them one before the other to compare.
On the other end of the spectrum, on Friday night it took me 7 hours to get up there and driving into the back end of that storm gave me a taste of how well these trucks do what they were designed to do... 1st, my ATT Navigator takes me over, no joke, more than 20 miles of iced and snow covered dirt road mountain-top passes, including several
miles worth of 45 degree plus inclines and declines.
Then, middle of nowhere, it freezes up and my phone dies altogether and I didn't even know what road I was on or where. It took me almost 2 hours just to find a real road, and another however long to figure out where the heck I was....
Happily, I had 3/4 of a tank because I filled up in Mass, so I wasn't worried about that, but I was by myself this trip. With no phone one false move could have been put me in a little bit of a survival situation. I just looked at it as my own little adventure to get myself back to civilization.
This is the best part, and why I typed all of
that........
Not one single time did the truck not do exactly what I told it to do!
I don't recall even hearing any of the traction control or other systems going off, and I did see at least one SUV spun into the trees or a ditch in one really iced over couple of mile stretch....
Smart for you for waiting for the color you want, you might as well love too! Congratulations, and welcome to the club!!!
