- Reliability (5)The 4.0L V6 engine and robust drivetrain are legendary for their durability, often lasting well over 200,000 miles with few major failures.
- Maintenance (4)Routine maintenance is straightforward and parts are widely available, though specialized off-road components can be more expensive to replace if abused.
- Technology (2)The cabin is intentionally utilitarian and sparse, lacking even basic modern infotainment features that were becoming standard in its era.
- Comfort (3)Front seats are comfortable and water-resistant, but the cramped rear bench and awkward 'suicide' doors make the back seat less practical for daily use.
- Dynamics (4)Outstanding off-road performance thanks to high ground clearance and a powerful V6, though on-road handling is plagued by body roll and poor visibility.
