Got it last Saturday...only had it for 4 days now. My mileage according to the AVG Mileage indicator so far is about 20.5 MPG. Not too bad considering how big and roomy this SUV is. Dealer experience has been good so far. I am adding the chrome strips between the windows (on the bars between widows) as I have seen this on other cars and it looks great, especially on a dark car like my black Enclave. I love the way the dash lights up at night. I think if they stuck a Lexus badge on the outside of this car, they would be one of the best selling cars at a Lexus dealer. I have never owned or planned on owning a GM vehicle but must say, its really an amazing car and truly think this could be a huge step in the right direction for GM. Now just add the Bluetoogh and keyless pushbutton start/entry to car and I'm all set. If you drive this car, you will get one over the Lexus, Acura or Mazda CX9. Love It !!!! PS... Got the Black exterior with Black Leather Interior

I hope that the wait for my Enclave isn't as long as some of the posts I have read. I don't think that I have ever been so excited about a purchase that I won't even get to use. (It's for my wife... Dark Crimson Metallic - I think that it is a unique color, in the sunlight it looks Dark Cherry; at night it looks Black). Just happy for her/us to get out of an old Venture Van. Was going to surprise her and swap car out for her at work when it came in, but got mixed reviews from friends/family on plan.. also she was asking to many money questions lately and started to think I was up to something... So asked her color choices and she said dark. I fell in love with the Enclave after first test driving Acadia, Outlook, and MX-9. Enclave is by far the best looking (also i like the fact that i rarely see one on the road; all the others must have had good years selling in NH becasue thats all I see (mostly Acadia's).. and Enclave handled better then then others except MX-9 (small for us with the 2-3-2 setup)... Anyway, my question stands; Ordered on 4/1/08, what do you think is a reasonable timetable for delivery? (Dealer said varies, but 6 - 8 wks leaning towards the 8wks.) Hope it is soon, can't wait.

Just purchased the CXL FWD, using the GM Military Discount. What a hassle...but stayed firm and bought it for a couple dollars over invoice. Specifically, invoice = 36,444 cost = 36,536. Went to the Buick website and used the "Build It" link and it searched the surrounding area for the most closely matched vehicle. One dealer pretty much refused to sell me the vehicle stating that the vehicle that came up in the search was already sold. I asked them to find another one in the area and they did, but the next day they said that was sold. I asked for the dealer's info, since deals fall through sometimes, and they refuse to give it to me. That when I knew something was shady. I did another search and found another dealer that again closely matched and when through some haggling with them. They didn't want to give me the military discount either. I then said that this is a corporate discount and they were the second dealer refusing to give it to me since the vehicle is somewhat of a hot seller and that I was going to notify GM about this practice. To make a already long story short I got $2500 off the MSRP and an additional $500 for a military rebate. Glad that's over with...I hope! I just hope that other military personnel aren't going through this.
