Ride quality for the first two years was "bad"- 2004 and 2005. Handled well but too firm for a SUV. They did a mild refresh in 2006 which resulted in painted bumpers, a few tweaks inside and a better ride. And then the full LCI treatment in 2007. Later models are fine, my parents have a 2009 and the ride is no problem.
