Back in the good old days when Ford and Chevy faced off for profits and bragging rights, it was Mustang vs. Camaro. And did the world ever tire of that endless battle of axles and pushrods? Well, here we are again. Ford vs. Chevy. This time, however, it isn't about meatheads with muscle; it's about moms with soccer balls.

[micamaro2]

GET IT RIGHT WHY COMPARE A " LIMITED EDITION " VS THE " LT" AND NOT THE "LTZ " THAT'S JUST STUPID

@DualofChaos *facepalm*

[DualofChaos]

@JDYDesigns Yeah but the GMC Acadia looks 10x better than the Traverse.

[JDYDesigns]

@DualofChaos those are the same freaking vehicle, just different badging >.<

[DualofChaos]

I wouldn't compare a Traverse to a Flex. I would compare the GMC Acadia to the Flex. Besides, the main reason you buy a vehicle like this is for practicality, which would put the Traverse/Acadia at the top since it has more room and more towing capacity. Both the Ford and Traverse have nice interiors if you buy them loaded, which they did for the Ford but not the Chevy for this test for some reason.

People think they are ugly, But once you drive one, there isn't anything else like it.

which one doesn't look like a box has a more powerful engine and doesn't have a ugly two tone color and does not have a low ground clearnence with out the distracting computer screen that will be outdated in 3 to 4 years

yeah but evertime i drive a ford flex on the road there will be no car like it im the only one 80% of the time and the other 10% is when there is another flex on the road

[Deftones429]

the ford looks like a stretched Cube 

[Friendly0Dan]

I work at a car rental company and we have many of both of these, I would go with the flex over the traverse ANYDAY.

@micamaro2 yeah i have the ltz and looks so much better inside and out. Why didnt they put it against the Buick Enclave or GMC Acadia which are the same things just a little more detail
