The price is mind numbing, something’s gotta give soon it just can’t be sustainable. The amount of scratchy plastics he touched during that interior overview was wild as well.

And these don't age well reliability wise. This is a throw away CUV for 72k.

I have an older one. Bought it used and didn't pay the crazy brand-new sticker price. You didn't mention that you can re-program the shortcut buttons, and on the drive mode button, pressing the centre takes you straight to Individual mode. I also like that you can see the engine oil and transmission temperature in the dashboard, so you know when it's safe to really boogie. The headlights at night are amazing. I've done some long road trips, and the headlight performance at night is really good. Easily spot the deer in the ditch. It sticks to the road in a way that seems impossible, given the height, on off/on ramps. I really like the ground clearance in the winter. In the summer it just means I don't need to worry about speed bumps (within reason).
