Glacier Gray Metallic exterior
Salt Crystal Gray interior

Only waited 7 MONTHS from order to delivery (for a variety of reasons - completely new model, manufacturing delays, etc). Anyway, it's here and we love it. Needs window tint and maybe some PPF up front, but it's a great family hauler.

The all new dash setup, Blue Cruise, split tailgate, and other features are fantastic.

Also, apparently there is now a complete stop on Platinum trim production for 2025 models currently - not sure if that's good or bad for us, but I'm not gonna worry about it.

Niiice. That's a unique and very good color combo.

Beautiful. How do you like the dash? How's the ride on those wheels?

Brother has two, but they were purchased used and are definitely older models.

I thought I might not like the dash, but I actually love it. The position ABOVE the steering wheel is the best part. It's like a HUD but actually usable/practical. It was also very intuitive (as are the capacitive touch controls on the steering wheel).

The ride is good. Maybe you can feel the road a little bit, but the ride is great overall. Much better than the 2018 Atlas which was on 20's. These are actually 22's. I almost opted for the 24's but they required a $10k upgrade, and that package was not worth it to me. I'm very happy with that decision.

You like the split tailgate? Seems to me like all it does is make it harder to reach in to grab something against the seats. And one more thing to break.

Love it. Much better for groceries (leave the lower half up). Much better for sitting on the tailgate like a pickup truck to put sunscreen or bugspray or shoes on, etc.

If you have small items close to the second row of seats, just leave the lower part up and its no farther reach.

We also have tons of golf bags and musical instruments that kids drag in and out. The split tailgate protects the bumper area 100% as they drag stuff in and out.
