2016 GMC Acadia SLE-1 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
Bought my 2016 Acadia SLE-1 AWD Certified July 2017 with 20,000 miles. First month of driving, noticed in the morning, when I pulled out, very sluggish. As the engine warmed up, once the temperature needle was halfway, then it would drive like a dream. Took it to service, said it was normal. Now it is winter, if I don't let it warmup for 10 minutes or until the temperature needle … reaches halfway, the engine revs and the rpm goes over 2 when only going 20 miles. Very disappointing, doesn't seem normal to me. Otherwise I like the style, the space, the comfort. Do not like the fuel economy though. I wish I did my homework on this year and model. Originally went to the dealership for a 2017, did not like the new model after test driving. Same evening took this car for a test drive, liked the older model, wider and stronger. Did not know the drive train in the 2015 and the 2016 models were changed which causes the terrible fuel economy. Plus the tailgate is very heavy should have a liftgate button as a standard.
