a Yakima StageTwo bike rack, and Yakima Timberline roof racks. However, the road to Bend's nearby lakes was closed due to snow, limiting the outdoor adventure.

The TrailSport's unique suspension, including stabilizer bars, spring rates, damper valve tuning, and a 1-inch lift, is 8.3 inches,

making it better than other three-row outdoor adventurers. The vehicle also has skid plates and a full-size spare tire,
