Versatility - Buy The MPV Here

The four-wheel drive equipped MPV All-Sport has the ability to accommodate buyers who want a better ride and more overall efficiency than a truck-based sport utility vehicle, or buyers who enjoy active lifestyles and find themselves, sometimes by choice, in rough, wet, and/or snowy conditions, or buyers who desire added security that a four-wheel drive system provides. Enhancing the MPV's popularity among sport utility buyers is its towing capability. The two-wheel drive MPV, equipped with the Load Leveling Package, can tow up to 4,500 pounds (4,200 pounds on 4WD models). Included with the Load Leveling Package is an automatic load leveling system that utilizes an electric-powered compressor that supplies pressure to the air spring units which assures the MPV's handling characteristics under all load conditions. The Load Leveling Package also includes a transmission oil cooler, larger cooling fan, and full-size spare tire.
