Best SUV Ever?

2009 GMC Acadia SLT-2 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)

This may be the best SUV ever. It is a large vehicle so it feels safe. Get's good gas mileage yet has loads of power. The inside feels like a honda odessey except it has more style and loads much more upscale. This vehicle is great for a man or woman and really is a step up from a car or mini van. This is the best SUV yet!

I love my Acadia

We have been Toyota owners for most of our life, because of reliability. One day I was driving and I saw this car that really caught my eye, it was the best looking car I had seen in a long time. So I followed it, it was a gmc Acadia. I researched a lot of cars on the Internet, and I always kept coming back to the Acadia. My husband loved it also. And we have loved it for the whole 2 months we've had it. It has a really comfortable ride. I fell very safe in it, it has 12 airbags, and 5-star safety rating. My 13 year old son loves it. 2 months is not long but I pray that we will have it for many years and it will be as reliable as all the toyotas we had in our lifetime. We hope America has done it!

We purchased the GMC Acadia for our retirement travels and we have taken 5 trips so far. We have driven in the mountains and in the desert and we are very Impressed with our 2009 purchase from GM. MPG is ,as stated, and better. I think General Motors can feel good about the 2009 Acadia. We sure do!

Central lock defect

My new Acadia just became faulty. A month after I purchased it, the central lock broke down. After being sent to repair 3 times, the dealer still couldn't manage to figure out what was wrong. It would be great to open my acadia without using the key, driver door. It will also be great to get my kids in without having them wait outside in order for me to get in and open the windows to be able to unlock the doors manually.
