Great value with Classy Aggressive Looks

The Equinox is a once in a decade auto- a vehicle that is an incredible value, great performer within its class, but yet likely to be largely overlooked by the purchasing public. The Equinox does not really excel in any one area (except maybe styling-see below), but it is exceptional enough in every single area to make it an extremely enjoyable SUV to own. Combine that with incredible value (my loaded LT FWD was $22,500 off the lot) and you cannot lose.

Just purchased our Equinox last weekend and so far LOVE IT!! Plenty of room for our family and all the "kid stuff" that we manage to haul around. Love all the storage spaces and the fact that I don't feel like I'm driving a "truck". Also looked at Toyota, Ford, Nissan...but liked the overall package of the Chevy the best.

The more miles the more problems.

I bought my Equinox about a year ago and loved it at first. It drove smoothly, it was comfortable to travel in for a little bit. Then my anti-lock braking system started to take a crap on me. Took it into the dealer said that it was a computer chip malfunction.They replaced that and I didn't even hardly get it out of the parking lot before it did it again. Took it back again and finally figured out it was something in the wheel. I hate the interior I spilled water on my seat and it stained it! All the buttons are wearing off and I just took it to the shop again because something to do with my radiator that could have potentially burnt my engine up! The more miles the more problems it seems.

Excellent design, but I wouldnt compare this to a tracker! I really dont like them, but the Equinox is amazing. It is very comfortable to drive and really is a great "SUV."
