Author's Review
As a woman who knows nothing about engines and horsepower, I will just say that when I want to get up and go, my Armada will do just that. So, my review is about the things that really matter, such as cup holders! There are at least 10 in the Armada, and every size cup will fit in the center console. My favorite features are the steering wheel radio controls, and the back up sensor that lets you know when you are about to hit something. I also love that with a touch of a button, the lift gate goes up and down. No more tugging on that heavy back door to close it. As a mom, the front reclining seats are fabulous for diaper changes on the go. We've been on many long road trips with no store close by and pulled over on the side of the road. My husband gets out and the seat reclines all the way down, so I have a flat even surface for a quick and easy diaper change. For those of you without kids, the seats make great sleeping spots while traveling. The dvd option is a must have, in my opinion. I'm so glad we spent the extra dollar to get it already installed. The sound system rocks and I love having the option of watching a dvd in the back seat with headphones, while everyone else enjoys the radio or cd. The most important thing in a SUV for me is safety, and the front and side airbags make me feel a lot safer should an accident happen. This is a great family vehicle, and the space in the rear when the seats are down, is huge! You could pack up your whole house if you tried! Well, maybe not, but it is more room than you could ever need. If you choose the model with the two captain's chairs in the back, the center console is great for storage, but you can also remove it if you need to haul a lot. I prefer this option over the bench seat because it is so much easier to maneuver to the third seat. Overall, this suv is awesome and you won't be sorry you bought it.
