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.

Torque Steer

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?

I have FWD and do not notice any torque steer at all. At 275hp and around 5000lbs of car, it shouldn't be a problem.

I was thinking that, but I don't think the Acadia is wide enough to fit two on the '60' side...I haven't looked but my guess is the Tahoe's a bit wider, enabling 2/60.
I'm contemplating walking into the dealer, car seats in hand to test, but I think that might be pushing it

If they want to sell a car, the dealer will be happy to let you test your car seats. I've heard of other people doing exactly what you're talking about.
