[roi432]

[coandcaiv]

knowing chevys quality..rather then putting in heated and cooled seats...they will instead dump a hot cup of coffee on your balls and throw ice cubes in your face

[MrD7oome]

رائعه جداً وان شاء الله لأشتريها

[RobbieBeLafonte]

I just bought one Oct 1st and love it to death! Great crossover! I plan on putting 22's on it as soon as they come in. So look out for the video!

[kubahobo]

[WweIsReallyGood]

Lol SAme with my mom she absolutly LOVES THIS thing

[TorontoBoi]

The announcer at the end sounds very asexual.

[305pride]

[donaldlee93]

[301camarillo]

in mexico this suvs is in the chevrolet of villa juarez and my father saids he´s to buy this

[gp40mc]

When you sit in the 3rd row you feel like you're in a cave. The windows are too small. They are better in the GMC Acadia or the Saturn Outlook which are basically the same car.

[xCOMPETITIONx]

if it's your car you don't have to worry about sitting in the 3rd row. Should be plenty of room back there for a child not an adult

[gp40mc]

Yes but I'm only 14. So sometimes I have to sit in the 3rd row if we are traveling with other people. It's not a lack of room either. There was plenty of room, it just was that it felt like the car was closing in on you. Maybe a brighter interior would have helped too, like you said in your other comment there are many choices. It was a nice car though and that was the only problem I found with it. Of coarse I didn't drive it though.

[ghettodarius]

thats how I feel when we travel in our Tahoe and we have black interior

[gp40mc]

Why's my comment marked as poor? I just said the windows are too small. I liked the car otherwise.

[xCOMPETITIONx]

lol i took that a lil offensive since I work for GM myself. I'll give ya a thumbs up. It does have a funny hsape in the back so I suppose you would get that cave feeling.

[gp40mc]

Probably a lot of people like that look and it looks fine from the outside. I just like the windows in the Outlook and the Acadia better. They let a lot more light in. We looked at the Outlook and really liked it but we my parents thought the price was too high and the dealer wouldn't come down at all. Oh well. We actually ended up getting a Honda Pilot instead. My dad wanted to buy an american car but we got a very good deal on a new 09 Pilot.

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

That's strange because the Outlook has a lower MSRP than the Pilot?

[gp40mc]

Well Honda was having a special discount for the Pilot that month or something like that. I think every month one of their cars gets a discount.

[Romanian97]

we are getting that car at 0 % financing and included in price is 5 year 100 000 mile warranty

[gp40mc]

There were many things we liked better about the Outlook but some things we liked better about the Pilot too. If the price was just a couple thousand lower we probably would have chosen the Outlook. It was a very nice car.

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

I think there won't be anymore Outlook soon now that Saturn has been sold to a company that can't design cars by itself.

[gp40mc]

True.

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

What?

[gp40mc]

Oh I meant I was agreeing with you and that I also think the outlook will be discountinued.

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

Outlook is better than Pilot in my opinion, the former being a full-size car.

[gp40mc]

I think it also has better acceleration and handling. I think there both good cars though.

[dudfud]

How Many Cylinders?

maybe its SO slow but they dont say that

[gp40mc]

It's a V6.

[Jon13bur]

Thats an engine?

[chevycobaltnews]

the chevy traverse has the best fuel mileage in its class. Also gm has made dramatic improvements in its interior sense this video was made. It is also more affordable than a highlander. Also Toyota has a suv named sequoia. It only gets 13/18. The worst in its class. Chevy has better average fuel economy than nissan and toyota.

[meeloothekid]

The interior is still to bland. GM has to learn to make interesting interiors if its going to survive.

[xCOMPETITIONx]

It comes with different variations of interiors. Like 7 different types.

[jjens007]

it looks effin cheap. look at the ugly ass stearling wheel.!!!

[manyouottago]

Looooool it actually looks effin awsum

[JJ2955]

great timing on introducing more huge sized SUV's. Are all the folks at GM brain dead when it comes to what we can afford to drive and fill up with gas? Bring back the station wagons!!!

[tamiasthechipmunk]

A station wagon is not going to fair much better than a CUV or mid sized SUV unless is a dingy little car like the Ford Escort wagon.

[emforty2]

this looks like a copy of 2006 toyota highlander and front end of 2007 acura mdx

[rudder11]

Now we have another SUV, Japan keep your

SUV.This is better looking that the Venza....

If it were not for American helping you

In the 80's.....you would have no idea how to build a car....so you copy....You have bikes

That look like my Harley another copy,

And then when you try to copy the sound

We take you to court......

[gower2352]

id rather have a Dodge Journey

[emforty2]

it looks like an 2007 Acura mdx and a Toyota rear end

[HeadTater]

Finally a crossover with some balls. I saw in a review that it can tow 5400lbs! It is bigger, more powerful and can tow more, but it still gets the same (or better) fuel economy compared to Honda and Toyota. It is priced competativly and overall, much nicer.

[70camaro406]

It's who WANTS a truck, but who NEEDS a truck. Just because gas prices are higher doesn't mean that people don't need trucks and big SUV's anymore.

[riomljr]

actually you'd be surprised as to how many people actually WANTed trucks. As you know america is the country where people usually buy alot of trucks. And ford (whose sales are 90% dependant on selling trucks) is going down too much in sales, in fact; toyota can buy ford right now if it wanted to. but who wants to buy ford?

[KAJ33T]

You know nothing about the automobile industry so don't comment on it please.

[riomljr]

your mom doesn't know anything about the automobile industry!!

[jpw10182012]

Screw anyone who hates American cars. You don't like them go back to your cramped skanky third world countries. suck on that.

[riomljr]

thank you!!! i couldn't of said that better myself!. i'm tired of people saying that honda, nissan or toyota are better. the u.s. needs to start taxing them harshly the way they do american manufacturers and then we will see if those japs. can handle it and still make the cars they make.

[Moocow002]

American cars are getting better and better, the 80s and 90s were their worst periods in my opinon, now they are getting greatly improved.

[masterlee123]

The worst American cars periods I think was the 1900,1920,1930,1940,1950,1960,­1970,1980,1990 and 2000s.

[MSU01345]

American engineering needs to catch up to Japanese and German. GM needs to make more fuel efficient cars (Toyota Prius, Along with comfortable 7/8-seats cars (Honda Oddysey). Americas economy is suffering because we go with the better quality foreign vehicles.

[209Sin]

does this car run on oil?

anybody know?

[oohjuliet]

nice vehicle..hope to have one someday!!!!

[atchevrolet]

As a GM of a Chevrolet dealer I can say that the reputation of poor quality was well deserved 5-10 years ago. Anyone claiming that domestic quality lags behind the imports now is misinformed and needs to do some research.

[PROgoth121]

Imports still show to have better quality than domestics. But you work at a Chevy dealership, so your pretty much there to take up for them, no matter what happens to them.

[CowboyDiplomacy]

You havent driven the tundra lately, have you? That think is shit. its ugly, handles like a slug tied to a iron wait, is uncomfortable as hell, and loud. I love my silverado :P

[PROgoth121]

So you like rougher rides? That's what the Silverado offers. I haven't driven them, but I rode in both. Tundra is much more quieter. But I like quieter trucks that actually last with fewer breakdowns. But hey, if you like trucks that break down more often and have rougher rides, thats cool, just makes you look like an idiot, but it's a free country. Toyota is dominating GM in sales anyways.

[smithy6375]

you obviously don't know what your talking about the tundra is very unreliable, especially w/AWD even Toyota-loving consumer reports didn't recomend it because of its reliability problems.

[PROgoth121]

Uhh yea Consumer Reports recommended 96% of Toyotas. Thats a good thing. Honda was recommended 100% and GM was down in the higher 40's. Or somewhere below 50%. That's not good.

[PROgoth121]

And people rate my comment bad because I stated a fact?? LAME as FUCK! LMAO

[riomljr]

actually toyota isn't dominating gm in sales anymore. i think you need to do some research. The new silverado is best in class in almost every category including best resale value.

[PROgoth121]

Well, yea I saw that the Silverado is the top selling vehicle currently, but GM isn't top selling brand overall. haha

[riomljr]

lmao! you dumbass now i know that you have to clue of what you talk about! Gm isn't a brand it is a manufacturer. Chevy however is a brand and by itself it isn't the top selling brand but all the brands that gm owns together make it still the top seller here in the U.S. where it matters most!

[PROgoth121]

yea, yea. w/e. Stop being some little GM fanboy. I know all the excuses cause they mess with me all the time. So there is no way your going to fool me.

[riomljr]

i'm not a little gm fanboy. First off i'm not a little boy. And second I don't like gm myself, i just can't stand it when people make up lies to prove a point that doesn't exist. The truth is that currently the silverado is the best truck right now. but who in the hell wants a truck right now when gas prices are soaring?

[luminahsv05420]

toyota as well is a manufacturer, under toyota is (toyota, daihatsu, lexus, hayes & heno), so what else u wana know, soo GM is number in the world without any competition at all in selling vehicles...

[riomljr]

idiot! dude, honestly! gm doesn't sell cars under a brand called GM they sell cars in diff. names. that is why the other guy didn't know what he was talking about. yeah toyota is a manufacturer and they sell their cars under that same name. but gm doesn't do that. they only stick to the name gm as a manufacturer and put on a diff. name on their cars. this way they could take in more revenue. see cause some people like saturns or buicks better than chevy but they are all from GM.

[meeloothekid]

Daihatsu is owned by Nissan. Toyota owns scion. Get you facts strait.

[luminahsv05420]

u know...u made me laugh and let my friends enjoy it with me, daihatsu is owned by toyota 1000000%, I was an employee with daihatsu 2 yeras back.... make sure, daihatsu sirion engine is toyota corola 1.3 L...and many more things, go to daihatsu showroom and check the engine of the daihatsu pickup 1.5 ton, it's wrtn on the engine TOYOTA.... u r the one who should the facts in the rght way ;)

[dknc75]

I know some of the people who make Chevys and Saturns; once you meet the people you know why the cars come out like shit. To boot, most of them are not even patriotic themselves, but are very patriotic in front of the cameras when they're picketing outside the factories.

[Sabrina9500]

I don't like how GM, Dodge and Ford use poor quality stuff to make their interiors. Japanese and German interiors are soo kick ass!  I'm ordering a Volkswagen Routan tomorrow and cannot wait to get it!!

[muzakship]

For the most part, domestics lost this competition 1+ decades ago.

[GMminivans9968]

GM and Ford don't use cheap stuff.

[ForiegnCars121]

ugh...You just won't stop arguing with my aunt! She's smarter than you and you fucking know it! You say GM and Ford don't use cheap stuff cause you want to be patriotic, and you must think our economy is fucked up so then that would make you think American made is the best when in reality...it just isn't. Our economy is already fucked up anyway. And buying American made junk won't help it now.

[jsmilesrmhs]

shut up

[Sabrina9500]

Well it is true! Stop being patriotic, cause that sucks.

[jsmilesrmhs]

this has a great interior

[Sabrina9500]

lol, not as great as the Toyota Highlander. The gauges in the Highlander are NICE

[p1314reyes]

Nice SUV but we have to see how long will last. Man, this is vehicle is made of plastic everywhere.

[GeneralMotorsRules]

High quality plastics.

[ethorlakson1]

why can't they design a different steering wheel for each vehicle. this steering wheel is found on:

Buick Enclave

Saturn Outlook

GMC Acadia

Chevy Tahoe/Suburban

GMC Yukon/Denali/Yukon XL

Cadillac Escalade

GMC Savanna/Chevy Express

Hummer H2

Chevy Traverse

[GeneralMotorsRules]

Costs a lot of money.

[ethorlakson1]

like how they left the child lock on the Cargo Astro?

[GeneralMotorsRules]

Big deal, so you have a child lock.

[kndrice]

The steering wheel is what you actually are degrading the vehicle on? NICE TRY!!

[joshviper129]

it looks like a Buick Enclave, cool beans!!!!!

[Paradiddler45]

I thought GM was moving away from brand engineering...

[GeneralMotorsRules]

The are.

[Paradiddler45]

Then explain why they have four versions of the same car, lol...

[GeneralMotorsRules]

I know what you're saying, and it's true to an extent. But, they are different cars in their own ways. Of course they share the same platform and hardware, but they all have uniquely styled exteriors and interiors. There's a version out there for everyone. Chevy version has value, GMC is more rugged/professional grade, Buick is the ultra luxury version and Saturn was originally supposed to sell volumes, but I think they might drop it and replace it with the Chevy.

[sandofarms]

Good looking.  Looks like a piece of armor.

[dracer101]

nice crossover...y does it hav to be a Chevy!!!???

[dragonstorm83]

Chevys are good cars, who told you different?

[coandcaiv]

LOL...good one

[tontonpacute]

good looking suv

[chevroletrulez4ever]

The man isn't the best ive seen to explain new cars, but the car is great!

[kevum]

i agree
