Spent a week trying to get 2 different dealerships to make any effort at all in selling the 2010 Equinox to me, these 2 dealerships SUCK: Connell Chevy in Costa Mesa, CA and Wesloh Chevy in Carlsbad, CA. No follow-up, arrogance and just plain lazy! Lies lies lies...caught these guys trying to play mind games and quote mis-information. Sent in a request to MK Smith Chevy in Chino, CA and the next day we drove home in our LS. Great service and great price, got top dollar for my trade in too. Paid $21542 (before conquest and trade in) for an LS with added floor mats. $-1000 conquest and got MUCH more for my trade than I was offered at Connell. We originally wanted an LT1 4 Cyclinder but none were to be found in color or engine we wanted. We checked out the LS and were very impressed with how nice it came equipped and the price, drove it around and walked out with it an hour later. Very impressive vehicle, would never have considered a Chevy before but we fell in love with this right away. |

Replying to: godeacs (Aug 10, 2009 6:57 pm)  Also vehicles are alot more expensive here in canada. Well here in alberta anyways. Base Trim's for most CUV's run at around $29,000 and go as high as $40,000 + for the higher end Trim's. I am super jealous of how cheap you americans can get these vehicles at

Many cars being sold now for the first year have been secretly on the road as "drones" for many years (not for sale of course, but used by the manufacturer). |

Replying to: festivus (Jul 23, 2009 5:11 am) I'm sorry to hear you went with the RAV4. If you had waited to drive the Equinox I'm sure you'd not have given the RAV4 a second thought. Here are some comparisons for you: EQUINOX 2.4L Ecotec 4-cyl engine 6 speed automatic 182hp 174 lb-ft torque MPG: 22/32 (FWD) 20/29 (AWD) AWD (ALL FOUR wheels power this vehicle, not just two like 4WD vehicles) Fuel capacity: 18.8 gal (4-cyl), 20.9 gal (V6) Fuel range: 600 miles RAV4 2.5L 4-cyl engine 4 speed automatic 179hp 172 lb-ft torque MPG: 22/28 (FWD) 21/27 (4WD) 4WD (this means that you have 2 diagonal wheels that power the car, NOT all 4 as you might believe) Fuel capacity: 15.9 gal Fuel range: 432 miles Some additional features that you might not know about the Equinox are that it has 4-wheel independent supension with front MacPherson struts and multi-link rear design to ride and handle like a sports sedan, a rear backup camera intigrated into the rearview mirror, the back seats move 8" forward (incase you have a child or childseat that you would like more easily accessible), the back seats have 3 reclining positions and split 60/40. There is a 2GB (10GB with the navi) harddrive where you can record music directly to your vehicle (hear a song on the radio you like? record it! hear a song on a friend's cd you like? record it!), dual flip-up DVD screens (can plug in a portable DVD player to watch 2 different movies or even a gaming console) segment-exclusive power programmable liftgate, ECO button to maximize fuel economy on 4cyl, best-in-class quietness, best-in-class seat comfort (matches Lexus RX330), tire pressure is shown for EACH tire, oversize glovebox can hold two medium-sized purses, hill-hold (holds you car on a hill for 2 seconds after you let go of the brake and before you step on the gas so you don't roll backwards), auto-grade braking to save your brakes and make the vehicle safer, Electronic Range Select for hills or towing, variable valve timing, headlamps turn on from 195 ft away for safe approach, time off for safe departure, tires are rated up to 65k miles.. etc, etc.

Replying to: greeneyespsu (Aug 17, 2009 2:49 pm) How did your boyfriend get supplier pricing? I know we were eligible due to our credit union membership for supplier pricing on GMC vehicles, would the same apply to the Equinox? Has anyone had a positive experience buying an Equinox or Rogue in the metropoliatan Washington DC area? |

Replying to: wallyuwl (Aug 02, 2009 8:48 pm) You said you got your Equinox for $23387 before trade and TTL. Is that also before the Conquest or did you include the Conquest cash in that price? I'm surprised to hear the dealer went so far below supplier price, but that's great for others if that is prior to conquest! Please let me know. Thanks!

Replying to: greeneyespsu (Aug 17, 2009 3:33 pm) It was just a little over $26k sticker, then supplier knocked almost exactly $1000 off, then another $1000 for conquest, and the rest was just a good price from the dealer. |
