Just picked up my '06 LE last night. This site was VERY helpful in making our decision. My wife originally wanted a minivan, but she saw the Armada at the car show and was impressed. We test drove one and she was hooked. The best part for me is that a) I don't have to drive a minivan and b) I have a new tow vehicle.

I am impressed with all the towing info on here and plan on ordering a Prodigy brake controller next week. I tow a race car on an open trailer totaling 4800lbs. (the trailer weighs more than the car). We have a 4Runner that I tow with and does better than you would think. However, it does struggle when going through mountain roads.

Long Menus

While the wife has been getting more comfortable driving the truck, I have been doing my best to learn all the functions. I have noticed that the Nav system and all of it's related functions can be a bit overwhelming. The Nav owner's manual is almost as big as the vehicle's owner's manual.

Just turn on the long menus and it becomes a little more intuitive. You'll figure out what you need.
