The 350 engine isn't bad, it has enough go for normal driving, its not a sports car though, so I wouldn't bother with the 500.
Go for the COMMAND with the reversing camera, it makes reversing so much safer, since you can hardly see out the back. |
Well said on both the LWB and the 350 vs. the 500. We just got done with a 600 mile round trip road trip and the R350 we have (LWB) performed great. Plenty enough power to get it going and I used the paddle shifters occasionally to get more pep from the V6 when needed for passing or going up hills. Was very satisfied with the power and handling of our R350...ride quality was great due in part to the long wheel base and our boys sat in the middle row captains chairs in great comfort. We have portable DVD screens on the back of the headrests and that made the trip very enjoyable for them as well. Cargo space was great w/ the 3rd row folded down...no complaints at this early stage of ownership, only smiles!
