I don't even know what I want anymore.

2010 Camaro?
2010 LaCrosse?
New Buick Regal?
2010 Equinox?
2010 Terrain?
2010 Volt?
2011 Cruze?

I can't think of any other time when GM has actually had me frustrated trying to figure out which car I want.

the interior is nice but thats were it stops. im sorry but chevy is reminding me of dodge with putting their "grill" on every car. hell the malibu, equinox,cruz,volt, and that mini van all have the same front grill witch is brutal to begin with. im really not a fan of this car.

The Chevy Traverse is the twin to the Enclave. The Equinox is related to the Saturn Vue.

Its a trademark. Don't like it, don't get it. Its Chevy's CrossBar grille.

I really like this Equinox, especially this interior and steering wheel! Its about on par with the new Traverse!

Every automaker does this...Ford has the three-bar grille, Dodge has the crosshair grille, toyota has their badge hanging off the top of the hood, acura has the ugly chrome shield grille...everyone does it. Even your Mazda 3's grille is the same as the Mazda 6's, or some elements are similar.

And GM doesn't build minivans anymore...

Actually the SRX is Theta Premium. Related to the Equinox, but not the same.

I really like this. My wife and I drove an old Equinox Sport at Rev It Up and it actually was pretty decent. The I4 sounds completely class dominant, but the 3.0L seems to give up quite a few MPGs and is still a little low on power and peaks pretty high up in the rev range. Still, this might make for a nice replacement for the wife's Taurus wagon a few years from now.

We ALMOST bought an Equinox instead of the Trailblazer, but the Trailblazer was on the lot at such a low price we couldn't turn it down. now that we have equity in the Trailblazer (our last trade-in was a little upside-down) we might have to look into this.

Of course, this is after the Camaro...hehe

Thats what i thought when i first saw it. I'm very intrigued, when i was looking at smaller crossovers i was looking at this and the torrent and wouldnt touch this because of its styling (it looked too much like a minivan, ewww minivan), but now, wow, we may have a winner. Tho, im not a fan of the mocha brown on the exterior (brownstone on the interior looks nice tho)
