Without trying to sound too negative, a 6000lb tow rating is inadequate for a vehicle of this size in my opinion. That's the primary issue with hybrid technology where large trucks and SUV's are concerned.

pretty cool. I know what you're saying about the 6,000 pound towing but the majority of people who drive these do light or no towing. In my opinion I don't think it's too big of an issue. Nice to see the manufacturers teaming up.
