2007 Chevrolet Equinox LS 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
This SUV is fun to drive. Came out of a Ford Escape XLT 3.0 liter lease and was looking at another one when we test drove the Equinox to the Ford Dealer. My wife drives this 99% of the time. She fell in love with this SUV. Did a ton of research on the Equinox and got great feedback from others who have them. Saved some money by going with front wheel drive only as I was told it is good in the snow and has been in one snow storm and one ice storm. I drove it for about 2.5 hours before purchase and liked the ride and less interior road noise then the Escape. One bad note wife said brakes felt weird. Took it to dealer and rotors needed to be replaced along with new transmitter fobs.
Favorite Features
Fun to drive. Lots of space. Great family vehicle. DIC is handy, So far fair gas mileage 19.3mpg in city and 26mpg highway. Stock sound system is excellent. Great Rrde. Good looking SUV.
Suggested Improvements
Should have hand grips up front and in rear. Cup holders are cheap and do get in the way up front. Fog lights and dark tinted glass should be standard. A little better gas mileage.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
I like the Chevy Equinox. We looked for a croosover for a few months. We came close to purchasing a Jeep Compass but a friend who had purchased a 2006 Equinox turned me on to the idea of purchasing one. I am glad we got the Equinox since it sits 4 inches higher than a Compass. If you are looking for an American made crossover then this is one to get. It has a smooth ride with lots of power. I recommend the LT over the LS as GM put a lot of plastic into the interior. But plastic is easy to clean and cheap to replace.
Favorite Features
The 3.4 liter 6 cylinder engine, the rims, the rear tail lights, and the height of the vehicle. Pulled up to a Jeep Cherokee on the highway and looked down on it.
Suggested Improvements
The interior could stand to loose some of the plastic. Other than that it is pretty much good to go.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LS 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
The Equinox is a fun, fuel efficient SUV. Not only does it look great, it handles well in bad weather and it has a nice weight to it. The power window switches are in the center console, which would be the only design I would change. Overall, it is a great value and I would recommend it to anyone purchasing an SUV for the first time.
Favorite Features
Favorite feature is the large cargo area in the back. You can fit a lot of groceries and packages. The back seat floor area is flat allowing for more storage.
Suggested Improvements
The window controls should be on the doors, not in the center console.

Review
Bought this 2007 as an extra car. I am really pleased with the purchase. This Chevrolet is well engineered and very quiet and comfortable. The engine torque is down low, which makes city driving enjoyable. Good value for the money in my opinion.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV AWD (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
The ride is very smooth. It is a real SUV, not like some car based crossovers. Engine is just right, fast acceleration. The interior is improved a lot comparing to previous Equinox.
Favorite Features
Drive information center, sunroof, premium sound, sliding rear seat, OnStar with hands-free calling
Suggested Improvements
Turning circle is big, which makes it difficult to park sometime. Front cupholders hit hand brake when the brake is set.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LS 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
Really spacious and comfortable. Engine has plenty of power and does decent on gas mileage. I enjoy driving it, very smooth and handles very well. I would recommend it over the Rav 4 or the Ford Escape. It has more power and is a much better ride. One bad note: the transmitter for the doorlocks went out the first week we had it.
Favorite Features
Lots of space, plenty of leg room in the rear. Great family vehicle. Also, the info system is great, gives tire pressures, avg mileage per tank, air temp, miles left on current tank and more. Gets surprisingly good gas mileage if driven normally.
Suggested Improvements
Nowhere to hang dry cleaning or a suit, no hand holds either. Also, the PRND is not lit up on the transmition selector lever. Also the cloth interior seems a little subpar.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
After driving a large SUV, I was very impressed with the handling of this much smaller one. I drive a lot of rough, country roads, and the handling around potholes and gravel roads was impressive, as well as the comfort on the interstate. I was shocked with the quality of the interior, and the attractive look of the exterior. What a great little suv for a reasonable price. I test drove several other small suv's, and this one outranked them all by a long shot.
Favorite Features
Electronic power steering! The driver's seating is comfortable and roomy. The engine is a good size for the size of the vehicle.
Suggested Improvements
The back seat could be designed for more comfort for rear passengers. Although plenty of leg room (I love that it slides back), the comfort of the seat could be better.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
I love the drive and feel of this car. Compared it with others such as the RAV4,CRV etc and you can't beat the value. It is not quite as refined as the CRV on the inside, but boy does it out perform it.
Favorite Features
Smooth, quiet ride. 6 cyclinder performance (vs crv 4c), so it can jump when you need it to. Good gas mileage (24.5mpg). The sound system rocks(upgraded 7 speaker). Sliding rear seat. Ipod input.
Suggested Improvements
Stupid placement of the cup holder. It hits the hand brake. I would soften the seats just a little although they are slowly breaking in. I am not a huge fan of the new soft touch rear door opener.

2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT 4dr SUV (3.4L 6cyl 5A)
Review
This is just a beautiful SUV. We just purchased and are still in honeymoon phase. It drives smoothly, compared to our full size trucks and seems to have all the bells and whistles that we hoped for. This is beautiful - everyone at work is jealous. Go ahead and do it, upgrade and get the leather interior. It's totally worth it.
Favorite Features
Exterior appearance. Good choice of SUV for some who are shorter but still like to sit higher up. Great Pioneer sound system. Easy to drive!
Suggested Improvements
The cupholders (kind of flimsy) The lack of lights on the shift (at night) you can still see in display - but it would have been a nice feature.
