Replying to: vad1819 (Apr 20, 2008 9:26 pm) That makes sense...wasn't the Acadia introduced in Feb of 2007? There would have been less Acadias on the road in March 2007 as compared to 2008 since the car was brand new. Not sure what point you're trying to make... |

Replying to: vad1819 (Apr 20, 2008 9:26 pm) 39% is based on selling days (28 last year, 26 this year). To show the consumer shift from SUV to CUV, GMC's SUV sales (Envoy & Yukon) were down over 3800 units for the same months. |

Replying to: albook (Apr 21, 2008 3:34 pm) It costs less too. But neither of us like the way it looks on the inside or out and I can't stand 4 cylinders in an SUV. The Flex was interesting to me, too. Yeah, I can't put it into words, but it was kind of a pleasent surprise to me. I liked it in the pictures but it was much better looking in the flesh. It has kind of a 'Three Little Bears' thing going on. Not too big and not too small. Not to tall and not too short. Not too... Well, you guys get the point.  Make no mistake though, it is not trying to replace the minivan like the Lambdas or the CX-9 though. It definitely is a direct replacement for the TX. Just more upscale.

Replying to: vad1819 (Apr 21, 2008 4:58 pm)  I would imagine that production wasn't going at full tilt right off the bat for the Acadia, etc, right? I'm not sure why this is being discussed, though. Because the McDonald's hamburger sells the most, is it the best? How about the F-150 - is it the best, most competitive pickup truck? These things sell the most, but that proves nothing.

Replying to: albook (Apr 21, 2008 3:23 pm) I said that Honda doesn't have a CUV, not SUV. Fact is that Honda has both the Pilot and the Odyssey, so it doesn't need to have a bulked up CUV trying to function as a minivan like GM.

Replying to: albook (Apr 21, 2008 3:23 pm) This is purely subjective, but do you really think so? I felt that they did drive big. Beefy, substantial in a good way, but big for sure. Visibility may have made it seem worse to me, and as an owner I'm sure you'd become better at judging where the corners are with time.
