VUE 2004 Red Line

It all depends on your driving. The RL suspension is enhanced so as to work with the 1" lowered chassis to give a more road hugging feel when accelerating around steep corners. (Try one, youll feel it!). On the other hand, I have to say that today I had a customer compare both on a long and winding road and he was impressed by the handling of both and could not tell the difference.

The RL has a slightly better center of gravity and handles curves a little smoother, but not by alot IMHO. The 18" alloys and better tires definately help alot in the handling dept. What you are really paying for on the RL VUE is the body kit and the kool 18" wheels. They both have the same interiors and V6 250hp Honda powered engine. You cannot tow anything with the RL VUE ergo, it is a "for looks " SUV and not as versatile as the normal V6 VUE.

Drive both and decide for yourself. marx404

As far as not towing, I live here in Palmdale California and there is a shop that modifies RL Vue so it can tow. They did a cut out of the plastic rear molding to allow for the towing apparatus.

Yes, I have heard of this being done. Do you know where I can find any pics of this modification? I wonder if there is anybody in South FL that also does this mod? I will be happy to refer customers to them.

Thanx, marx404
