Wow - and it's the CUV version: small, tall 4-door wagon. Today's most popular bodystyle? Surprised it hasn't sold yet!

It looks like it may have been used as a tow-behind dinghy for an RV or something - is that what the hardware is on the front bumper?

A little odd that they don't mention odometer reading. But if a lot of those miles are from towing, you'd want to explain that.
