Why would anyone get this over the Chevrolet Equinix?
And why did they keep GMC over Pontiac???

  3. Holy hell that thing is ugly outside. The dash looks nice but not nice enough to offset the ugliness outside.

  4. Good Question. But as one of the last "brands" on the planet to get its first a front wheel drive vehicle (Acadia) I guess they figured they'd give it 20 years first before they decide to trash it…since they were already behind the times.

  8. So how exactly has badge engineering ended at GM??

    This has basically the same exterior as the Equinox but a different exterior. Same powertrain and components.

    Our tax dollars at work!!!

    Lame, lame, lame.

    I agree with the poster from September 14, 2009 9:57 AM, I'd rather have a CR-V too. At least with that I know that it is unique and it isn't a badge job and will hold its value well.

  9. ya its pretty ugly, but the CRV looks just as bad in its own way and its the most sold suv for some reason

  11. I have always liked the Nissan Armada although there are some that aren't fond of it……but this!, holy cow ….it's very ugly.

  12. I am pretty sure I like the design.
    I hope it has some good off roading capability as well.
    Would love to test drive on of these and the decide.
    In short I like it.

  13. The interior is identical to the Equinox. At least with the old re-badges, the interiors were at least somewhat different.

  14. I'm very disappointed with this car. Chevy did such a nice job on the Equinox, which has similar underpinnings.

    The wheel arches are ridiculous, and the grille is far too big. There are no functional reasons for these styling decisions.

    The car is overcompensating – it's saying "I'm the butch, real man's mini-SUV!"

  15. Vince I actually saw one of these at the dealership in Orlando fl and it looks much better in person. Although I think there is some 1st gen Vue in there( the one after the refresh). It's really a nice car with some cool features. If anyone is looking for something in this class they should give it a try. They might be suprised.

  17. The ONLY reason GM decided to keep GMC around is to keep Buick dealers from whining that they don't have any SUVs and trucks to sell.

  18. This thing is overly masculine, I don't really get the point of it at all. It has the same interior as the Equinox but a terrible exterior.

    To sum it all up? I hate it.

    Exactly.

    Looks like nothing has changed.

    At least Honda is a good company though. People trust Honda because they have a proven record.

    You might hate their cars but you can't argue that they don't make a great product.

    My sentiments exactly.

    Vince, do you know how much this is going to cost all of us in the future????

    This is crazy. It looks like we are back to the old times again.

    This vehicles twin hasn't got good reviews either. Car and Driver said it was boring to drive and that the six cylinder was a worthless addition that killed fuel economy and that the 4 wasn't exactly adequate since this thing is so heavy.

    Hey Vince, what do you think about Mahindra just out of curiousity? A diesel SUV might be a neat thing to have, right?

  23. we've had one on our lot for 2 weeks. looks great in person. interior is fantastic. and for $24,295, the amount of standard options you get trumps many foreign makers.

    maybe you should see one / drive one before you pass judgment, Vince. but that'd be common sense.

  24. This will be another one for the rappers and drug dealers to pimp out with the big chrome spinners.

  27. And people thought that the Toyota 4 Runner was ugly? GM & Toyota should have created a joint venture and made only one more superfluous SUV.

  28. hey GM just announced a 60 day money back guarantee if you don't like the GM you buy. Wow, will that ever backfire. If you are dumb enough to buy a car from a bankrupt company that has screwed soooooo many people over for 50 years. Hey would anyone out there honestly buy a car from GM today?

  29. I like it, id like to see one in black. It would have a brutal look about it.
    For us oil addicts anyway.

  31. If you liked the upcoming Toyota FourRunner; you'll LOVE THIS GMC! If you don't like either, you're not who they're intended for. I like BOTH. (But the GMC has the better interior — more of a quality feel.)

  32. All these twits had to do was put the Acadia front end on this puke mobile…They actually expended effort to make it unsellable.

  33. all new gm interiors are looking the same. at first glance, this could be the equinox, cruze, insignia, lacrosse, even the opel astra

  37. I fell like as it was design to be a small Hummer. A bit like the H4 if you put a lot of chrome on it…

  39. Poor GM. This is too funny! They even photographed this poser station wagon in front of a tacky McMansion probably located on a gated golf course community. That would explain the lack of good taste of design all around.

    Are you kidding, guy???

    The vehicle HAS BEEN ON YOUR LOT FOR TWO WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!

    If it were so good it would have been sold the first day or two, or even have been sold before it got off of the truck.

    What a stupid comment. It is the same vehicle as the Equinox which hasn't been well received already.

    Go away.

    I would NEVER consider purchasing a GM until they have FULLY stabilized and don't put out crap like this.

  42. I am getting really tired of GMs interior theme and center stack.

    It is the same on almost every single one of their products from Buick, Cadillac, Chevy, GMC. There is NO differentiation between all of their models and it is really boring.

    GM still hasn't learned anything.

  43. Just when you thought GM was done putting out brand new cars that look like they were designed in the 90s, the OLD GM finds a way to shit on everything… They must have had a meeting and realized that alot of their cars looked good and were all like, "Damn we need to start rolling out ugly pieces of shit, our cars look too good"

    If it were so good it would have been sold already!

    I bet it will be on your lot for another couple of weeks!!!

  46. Old: The heartbeat of America.

    New: The heartattack of America.

    This monstrosity is an embarassment and a slap in the face for our tax dollars.

    GM and Chrysler are FINISHED. At least Ford is showing a LOT of promise.

  48. RE: "Hey would anyone out there honestly buy a car from GM today?" Just bought an Escalade: $71,000.00 and worth every penny. Thanks for caring.

  49. D A M M H A N D S O M ! ! ! It's a tough choice between this and the upcoming FourRunner… I'll decide after checking how they compare on price & MPG.

    This must be a joke comment.

    The 4Runner is more expensive and has lower MPG. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.

    This thing is a POS rebadged Equinox but with a face that not even a mother could love.

  56. "Just paid $109,238 for one of these, worth every penny."
    – don't feel bad, the day my brother was released from the institution he went out and spent $26k on a (honda) CRV! At least the GMC doesn't burn your eyes with it's amoebia-like ugliness!

  59. This vehicle was far along in in design BEFORE the bail out money people! You can't design a vehicle that fast (even a reskinned rebadge like this)! Wake up! You wont see any fruition from our tax dollars for a few years yet…this vehicle is still from the PRE-Bailout money era! Jesus, were you all born yesterday???

  60. Ya know Vince, the Sept 18,2009 5:52 am comment really has no place on ANY site. At best it's immature & derogitory. At worst it's offensive & liabous.

  61. YOU SAID: "The 4Runner is more expensive and has lower MPG" I SAY: "Thanks for the help. We're going to see a GMC dealer this weekend to place an order. (Didn't really want to wait any longer to buy anyway; and the Toyota isn't out yet). Again, Thanks!

  62. I swear I saw this thing about a week or two ago when I was on the highway.

    I might be the only person here that kinda likes it. To me it has an edgy-futuristic look to it.

  66. I have seen & have driven. Mine is on order, can't wait to get it. SLT2~FWD~everything but navigation & DVD.

  67. Sweet Jesus, that could be the ugliest vehicle ever made. I thought the Aztec was a disaster, but this one makes that POS look like it was designed by Pinninfarina.

    It also reminds me of the Wagonqueen Family Truckster.
