If you need something lifted with armor, you probably should consider something like a Wrangler that would work much better out of the box for that type of driving. However, the AWD is great on the road, but it wouldn't be the best off road vehicle.
Thank you for your info. I know there's vehicles much better, but the gas mileage is horrible, reliability is poor, and a real noisy ride. I was thinking maybe getting skid plates installed and change the shocks and tires out. I am sure it will take it's toll on the mileage. My driving is 90+% hwy and 10% off road/farm roads, etc.If you need something lifted with armor, you probably should consider something like a Wrangler that would work much better out of the box for that type of driving.

Makes no sense to get a hybrid then... you should read up on how they work to save gas.My driving is 90+% hwy
Sorry I should have said 90% combined - city(60%) / hwy (40%)Makes no sense to get a hybrid then... you should read up on how they work to save gas.
