>Acadia has a really cool feature (also all but invisible), the heads up display.
I second that. I bought my 03 GM car because my wife made me; my 93 ran just fine. The option packages included HUD which I felt was insignificant. However it is neat to use and increases safety.

Sorry to ruffle your feathers. What I am referring to is the people who wear the borg implant looking devices everywhere they go. I do not have class envy I could afford to purchase not lease any car below 80k with no impact on my finances. I just don't see a demonstrative value add for using BT but hey that is why there are 31 flavors. Having your phone integrated into your car audio system is fine but buying and using the borg implants seems like an issue of what problem is this solving?

If having a Borg implant would impress "7 of 9" from the old Star Trek starring Jeri Ryan, I'll sign up for an implant any day!
I crack myself up.

More to my point....you would think that you'd be more likely see a couple in an area (NY) that has supposedly more dealers per sq mile (don't know why the geography lesson had to come in, but whatever). Let's not forget the 4300 were in Feb alone....what about the other months Acadias' been out? All I'm saying is the odds should be in my favor as opposed to somebody out in the middle of nowhere (where there's no dealers:))

I really wanted the ability to stick somebody in the middle of the second row to occassionally get 8 in the vehicle (yes 2 car seats),but it looks like that's a no go until they redesign the 'slide' to accomodate that idea

HUD is just so cool, i don't understand why GM does not advertise this feature more, especially to younger people (like some posters here). Its a digital 'wiz-bang' for GM in a world where the Japanese and Germans get all the atention in that area.
One thing they can do, is to offer it in a mainstream car like the new malibu.

It has been used in many GM sedans in the past. Grand Prix has/had it. As did others.

Are the car seat resricted to the outside positions? Why not 2 car seats on the 60% side, leaving the 40% to slide and access the rear?
For a short time we had 2 car seats and a booster in our Tahoe. It worked fine with the two car seats on the larger side. Granted they were not the newer "latch" install models and fastened with the seatbelts.

For those of you that have either an Outlook or an Acadia that is front wheel drive only (Not AWD) do you notice any tendency to torque steer (i.e pull to one side) upon rapid acceleration?
