This is a car that makes me hope that Chevy makes it - it looks good and looks prepared to take on the competition.   We shall see, wife will be in the market for a replacement SUV next year...

And because of that nobody will trust a union again, because everyone will know that they really aren't out for the workers.   Toyota sold about the same amount of cars last year and they have 11 billion in the bank. Granted, some of it maybe bad financial descisions, but a lot of it is to high employee cost.

Replying to: halwg (Oct 01, 2008 4:44 am) I don't understand your criticism. I see nothing about a third row seat, Thank goodness. The rear seat moves back and forth 8" for more legroom or cargo capacity as needed.     The new 2.4L, 4 cyl engine has 182 hp while providing 30mpg/21. I think that is fantastic!   Looking at the exterior dimensions it is not that different than the new Venza.   With the new improved interior a la Malibu and a much better exterior design I think GM has a winner.

Replying to: roho1 (Dec 25, 2008 8:40 am) Does anyone know if the steering has been redesigned? The biggest criticism I have heard about the Equinox in the past is the play in the steering and it is the one thing that has kept me from buying one as it reminds me too much of my Suburban which has been plagued with a similar problem and is really annoying, especially on a straight highway requiring constant corrections way back and forth.   Also, has anyone seen any estimates of availability?
#9 of 350 Deciding on a Crossover by gary100 Jan 26, 2009 (3:10 pm)
My wife and I are deciding on what crossover to buy. I've read the reviews on the Equinox but have yet to drive one. We've walked through dealerships on Sunday when they are closed and found a few 2009 LS and LT that were unlocked. They seemed to have more room than most crossovers it's size however, the interior does not seem as good as some of the others we have looked at. We plan on driving the Equinox this week. We are very curious of how the ride will be. We did see a couple vehicles at the dealership that we are interested in. The price is much better than the Mazda CX7 we have been looking at. I like the look of the 2010 inside and out. It may be smart to wait til this summer. Don't want to make the wrong move.

Replying to: gary100 (Jan 26, 2009 3:10 pm) I recommend waiting for the new model this spring. It is all new. It will have much better powertrain options. I also think the looks are vastly improved. I believe you would be glad you waited. Check out the 2010 model. Replies to this message: gary100 (Jan 30, 2009 4:51 pm)

#13 of 350 2010 engines by rvoth Feb 19, 2009 (10:14 am)
Yes an new V-6 3.0 liter engine will be avaviable , producing 255 hp and 218 lb of torque also the 2.4 liter 180 hp is standard equipment. Both engines will be mated to a six speed transmission, a different type of six speed for the AWD versions.  They also increased the capacity of the fuel tank to 72 and 75 liters in both FWD and AWD versions. This will help making does long highway trips more enjoyable. Replies to this message: rvoth (Feb 19, 2009 12:29 pm)
#14 of 350 Transmissions 2010 Equinox by rvoth Feb 19, 2009 (12:18 pm)
The 6T70 transmission will be used in the 2010 vehicle . The AWD will have an electronic limited slip (eSLD) which will distribute the Torque from side to side in addition to front and rear axles.   A great improvement over the previous model.
