LOVE MY ASPEN
Source: Cars.com

..."THE 2007 ASPEN I RECENTLY PURCHASED WITH THE HEMI 5.7 LITRE ENGINE IS THE SMOOTHEST DRIVING SUV I HAVE EVER OWNED.
THE FEATURES ARE ENDLESS THE BODY STYLE IS AERODYNAMIC AND IT PULLS MY 16.5 FOOT FISHING BOAT WITH LITTLE OR NO EFFORT.
IF YOU R LOOKING FOR GAS MILEAGE PASS ON THE ASPEN BUT IT RIDES LIKE A LINCOLN CONTINENTAL AND IS DEFINITELY A LONG DISTANCE COMFORT MACHINE.
MY ONLY REGRET IS THAT CHRYSLER STOPPED MAKING THESE BEAUTYS IN 2009.
I HAVE OWNED A 1999 TAHOE, SWEET RIDE AND A 2001 YUKON AND BY FAR THE ASPEN BLOWS THEM AWAY IN CARGO SPACE, STANDARD FEATURES...

Love at first sight.

...Pros: I purchased my Chrysler Aspen in August. 08. I love everything about it!
Its stylish, comfortable and roomy! I am 5"3, so the adjustable seats come in very handy.
Cons: Blind Spot. If your coming around a left curve in the road and you need to make a left turn at that curve there is a very obvious blind spot,
the front left interior panel blocks view of oncoming vehicles, I have to look around that blind spot.
Make your left turns with caution! Overall: Other than the obvious "blind spot". This is my very first "fancy" SUV, I am extremely satisfied with my Chrysler...

Great Bargain for a Full Size SUV

..."We needed a larger SUV to haul around our 3 toddlers and 1 baby.
For the price, the Aspen was perfect. The kids can stretch out and watch the DVD during long trips.
Plus the vehicle came with all the features we needed and then some. The power liftgate comes in handy when we go to the grocery. It handles great and looks very sharp."...

Chrysler Aspen - sleeper luxury

..."This is the best SUV I have ever owned. I like everthying about it and would only ask for some of the trickly little extras that the Cadillac has.
The car is a strong runner and had been very reliable. The two back bucket seats are a real hit with my daughter and her friends. Great car, very underated."...

#7
Best big SUV for the money
Source: Cars.com

..."I LOVE this car and I have owned many. I was looking for a Yukon or Tahoe and I found this car new loaded with all features of a Denali for 10,000 less.
Very comfortable. Only 2 gripes are don't like the grill and the middle backseat doesn't have latches for the car seat."...

Loving My Aspen

...Pros: I love this SUV!! It is stylish and classy at the same time.
The features are great and it seems to be very safe for a family.
This SUV is just as good as an Escalade (or comparable) but costs way LESSSS
!! Cons: The seats aren't that comfy.... Overall: I love this SUV and I would recommend anyone that is looking for an SUV to look at one of these before making their final decision...

Why should I also consider these?

Interior appointments and features are the Aspen's strengths in the market; it's a little glitzier inside, with more features and a look that's similar to top-of-the-line competitors like the Yukon Denali or Expedition Limited, for less money.

But there are a lot of drawbacks; the Aspen just isn’t as roomy inside as true full-size competitors like the Ford Expedition and GM's big Tahoe/Yukon SUVs—which both handle very well and have more usable space in back for passengers or cargo.

Compared to mid-size, truck-based SUVs like the Chevrolet Trailblazer or Ford Explorer—possibly due to its height—the Aspen is much more cumbersome to maneuver, while its fuel efficiency isn't any better than the biggest utes.

The Ford and GM full-size SUVs also boast top crash-test results.

Meanwhile, the Sequoia was just redesigned last year and has a noteworthy interior and impressive refinement.
