2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV AWD (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
I have been driving for 40 years and had about as many cars and trucks in that time with this being my first SUV. The closest thing I owned previous was a Chevy van with the same engine which is one reason I knew I would like it. The engine is powerful yet delivers great mileage for a vehicle of this size. Running it hard around a major city shows close to 19 MPG with highway running 70-75 mph 24 MPG. Thanks to the 5 Speed. The ride is what I really enjoy, smooth, real smooth and quiet. I bought it for the Pittsburgh winters and long commute I make into the snow belt north of here plus the space to carry my wife's wheelchair with room left for other passengers which it does with ease.
Favorite Features
Power. Gas mileage. Space. Ride
Suggested Improvements
Better standard stereo system

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LS 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
I recently went out and traded in my Trailblazer SS for a new Equinox and I am very impressed. The gas mileage in this thing is phenominal for an SUV (that's not a hybrid). I travel a lot for work so I have had many chances to get a feel for it and I really like it. My wife also likes it. The ride is very comfortable and is almost ideal for long trips. For those of you who like to ride high but also want good gas mileage and a comfortable ride, this is the one for you! I wish I would have got the AWD but my gas mileage would have suffered. Also 17" rims are very nice a attractive!
Favorite Features
Gas mileage, comfortable, smooth! Ideal for long trips
Suggested Improvements
Dont like the back bench seat. Needs a stereo system that you can hear! Also when the back windows are down (front ones are up) there is a horrible wind resistance making a deep roar in the car that almost pops your ear drums!

I just leased a 2007 Equinox LT FWD the end of May. I love it! So easy to handle, very comfortable, and great on gas mileage for a V6.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV AWD (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
We looked at many SUV's and always came back to the Equinox. We purchased an AWD with 3LT pkg. With the chrome clad wheels and leather, everyone thinks we paid thousands more. It is my wife's car and just the right size to get around in. She feels very safe and secure in it. The AWD worked well in our Minnesota winter and the stability control took over when I tried to spin out. We also have a great local dealer.
Favorite Features
We like the style, ease of getting in and out (both front and back seats), build quality, fuel economy (25.6 mpg highway and only 2,000 miles on the car), and safety features (ordered with side curtain airbags).
Suggested Improvements
The latch on the sun visors are weak. We would prefer that the power door locks not be speed activated-the car needs to be in park to open the door when driven. The dealer has been unable to reprogram the locks to manual operation.

The Chevy Equinox has been a dream come true for our family. The interior roominess of this compact SUV was the major selling point for us. We love the ride of this vehicle too.

Roominess, ride, comfort

Review
Well I purchased this vehicle for my Mother for a Mother's Day gift. My Mother wanted this vehicle since 2005. However the 2007 model was the best to buy yet. The StabiliTrak is standard on the 2007 model which is great for handling the vehicle on highway ramps and other tight turns. My Mother has said that it drives very smoothly and has great handling with the StabiliTrak feature. However my Mother has complained about the wide turns and the location of the hand brake. Otherwise it's a great investment.
Favorite Features
Mp3/CD player, reading lamps, cargo shelf, great leg room. Location of the antenna and location of the gear shift.
Suggested Improvements
Relocation of the cup holders or hand brake.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
I am a first time SUV owner. I test drove the Toyota Rav4, Ford Escape and Honda CVR. This was the most car for the money. Lots of safety features and the driver's information center is very useful. Have had lots of compliments on the style of this vehicle. I would recommend it without hesitation.
Favorite Features
OnStar and remote start. Lots of cargo room. Quiet ride.
Suggested Improvements
Steering feedback is not great. Gas mileage could be better. Interior not as refined as some but is far from bad.

Review
I bought my Equinox just two months ago. I have a horrible experience with it so far. Just after two months (3000km) loud noise appeared in drive side front wheel bearing. It's high pitched humming noise, very loud and unbearable after just cuple minutes of driving. Even more frustrating was dealing with GM warranty service. They did't have bearing assembly to replace, it had to be ordered and I'm still awaiting for it (3 weeks passed already). GM doesn't provide replacement car and I have to drive Equinox with faulty bearing. It is become a torture - noise getting more and more unbearable. I had to cancel my travel plans, limit my driving to minimum. Fuel consumption is very high - horrible
Favorite Features
There is no pleasure to drive a car in this condition
Suggested Improvements
Definitely GM have to improve their quality.

Review
Traded in a 2004 Nissan Xterra for the 2007 Equinox. The Equinox has much more interior room both in the front and rear seat and being over 6 foot tall I was surprised by the rear seat leg room. The ride is smooth and comfortable and compares favorably to my Nissan Altima. The gas mileage has been as advertised. It has so much more get up and go compared to the Xterra.
Favorite Features
Gas mileage is great for mid-size SUV which can also tow 3500 pounds. Other SUVs, that get similiar gas mileage, could only tow 1000-2000 pounds. Exterior looks great. Ride is very comfortable.
Suggested Improvements
Turning radius is a little bigger than other comparable SUVs. The PRND is not lit up on the selector lever.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LS 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
This SUV shouldn't be in a class with the Ford Escape and smaller SUVs. It's remarkably spacious, it looks great, and there's so many options you can get. I got the base model, added great leather, dark tint, remote start, bluetooth, and rims. I liked it this way so I would only pay for what I wanted. First ever SUV and I'm loving it.
Favorite Features
Favorite features are the information center, the stereo looks great, and the room still blows my mind. The ride is smooth, quiet, and powerful.
Suggested Improvements
I have had some small noises but I feel it's just because it's a brand new car and have all been managed. I do however think there should be darker tint. When the "door-open" sign comes on, it should state which door it is, and lastly the doors should have more to them, kinda weak and boring on interior
