    Beast with tremendous off-roading capabilities, BUT with poor service management

    DRIVING:
    I hired a self driven Endeavour for a road trip to Leh. This car has excellent features like ABS (which is quite effective) and some unheard things like bonnet pops up when overheated, et all. I just loved the drive. Front row seating is very comfi and I drove around 3000km in 8 days and didnt feel stressed at all. Second row seats have good leg room. Third row is fine when folded only. The car simply eats up the pot holes but when on bumps, it can be very dislocating. The second row occupants can face some uncomfortable time coz of this. The 4H mode isnt very effective and I had to fall back on 4L mode very often. Apart from this the SUV is truly a winner. The ground clearance is by far the best.Interoirs are American, and thouht about. I even learnt it had a map reading table in the dashboard(thats what i call it). I got a mileage of 10+ for the entire trip with AC on for over 75% time. In this price, theres nothing comparable. A friend of mine who owns an Endeavour is not happy with service options in Delhi and sometimes has to wait for a week or so for the spares. I dont know if this is generic opinion, but certainly prompts me to think twice before buying one for myself.Good fuel economy for its size, excellent road presence, good brakes, zips on highway, true off-roadBad on bumps, spares and service in Delhi
