    THE MOST COMPETITIVE PRICING ANYWHERE
    COME SEE WHY ITS WORTH THE DRIVE TO FREDERICKTOWN

    Trim and package highlights include Equipment Group 200A and Active Comfort Package. Comfort and convenience highlights include heated seats, heated steering wheel, third-row seating, power passenger seat, and moonroof. Technology features include Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, 13.2-inch touchscreen, Wi-Fi hotspot, SiriusXM, USB connectivity, and remote start. Capability and everyday-use features include trailer sway control, selectable drive modes, 4WD, power liftgate, roof rack, and 20-inch wheels.

    For shoppers comparing similar vehicles, the well-equipped Active trim finished in Carbonized Gray Metallic is a major part of the value. The equipment mix adds practical value through Equipment Group 200A, Active Comfort Package, heated seats, heated steering wheel, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, trailer sway control, selectable drive modes, and 4WD, giving shoppers more than mileage alone to compare. The very low 10-mile reading adds another reason to look closely at this example.

      Single guy looking for a vehicle that is fun to drive but can haul junk too, and this fits the bill. I came from a 2018 Lincoln MKZ 3.0t AWD, this has all the same features but this does it better. Mine had one minor panel issue the dealership is fixing, but otherwise everything is solid. Installed a BOV, I find it funny to blow past people with a quiet exhaust and a loud Spanish sound as they disappear into the distance. Fantastic nighttime viability over the lower trims. Actually just better over all than the lower trims. Bolt ons and a tune just puts this in its own league for the price you pay, the only thing that comes close is a 2026 dodge Durango RT 392. ST is not for everyone but it is for me. "Sporty" family hauler my butt. Wrong demographic. This is a genuine fast mid-sized SUZ that you'd have to go luxury to get close to the performance numbers otherwise.

      I love the suv its fantastic to drive only issue I have is the wind noise in the driver seat but I'd sleep in it every night the seats are comfortable.
