2009 Chevy Traverse LT2 vs. 2009 Ford Flex Limited - Only $1,005 separates the base prices of the all-wheel-drive versions of the 2009 Chevy Traverse LT2 and 2009 Ford Flex Limited ($36,250 and $37,255, respectively). However, thanks to a pile of options on our Flex Limited tester and none on our Traverse LT2, there's a $7,000 cost gap between the cars in this test.(more)

Japanese cars were way better than american. I remember my dad constantly working on our gran torino. A car with over 100k miles and no issues was rare. Today american cars are very well made. That is a fact. As far as style, I like some american cars and some foreign, mostly I think some american cars try to break the mold, japanese cars usually look very similar to one another. Just my $.02.

I just want to know why not get a Chevrolet Traverse LTZ and compare it with the Ford Flex Limited, instead of a 2LT? It's pretty easy to understand why the author liked the Flex's interior, with leather, navigation, etc. So, why not compare apples to apples? It's not like the Traverse doesn't have something to compare with the Limited. Replies to this message: waveho (Jul 21, 2009 11:53 am)

Replying to: d_sanders (Apr 07, 2009 5:39 pm) I completely agree. They compared the Flex to the WRONG MODEL! My LTZ has heated AND air-conditioned front seats, rear DVD, auto-folding side mirrors, leather, remote starter, premium Bose, full screen navigation and rear-camera, spacious 3rd row, huge storage space BEHIND the third row which is rare in a non-Suburban-class SUV, and the styling is class-A. I guess I'm not "hip" enough, but I don't like the Flex in any way.

US N & WR rated all "Affordable Midsize SUVs" and found the new Traverse to be the BEST of the bunch. Here is the link: http://usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/cars-trucks/rankings/Affordable-Midsize-SUV- s/ Ford Flex bounds in at number 9. A very strong showing for the Traverse, that's for sure.

Replying to: nickdago (Mar 24, 2009 2:34 pm) As a retired person,lots of time on computer ! GM,Ford,Toyota,Nissan,about all,build autos and trucks that are not sold in this country ! From Mexico down and other conntries they make disel motors (great MPG) ! USA ! Bigger,more HP,more options,that what the auto makers put on you in this country ! But isn't that what you've asked for ? That guy in front of you is not "Drunk" he use-ing one of the new features on his auto !!
