Just convinced my sister and her husband to buy a Traverse for their family. It's a 2011 LT with AWD, silver with dark interior. At heart, it's a family hauler, but GM has put some effort into it. The 3.6 is a good engine, good sound, decent power in that application (280hp).
She had her heart set on a 2008+ used Honda Pilot. I went with her to check out the Pilot at first (used 2008) and it was truly boring, uninspiring. We looked at a newer one, and it just felt almost cartoonish. I sold her on the Traverse because it's got such excellent drivability. It's driver-oriented, but also has great accoutrements for passengers. It's basically what Audi would sell if it was in the business of producing $30k large family crossovers.
