Tried out 2019 Acadia SLT1 but Disappointed!

I own a 2012 GMC Acadia SLT1 with 23,000 miles on it and was becoming concerned over car's age even though very low mileage. I loved this vehicle so much that I was interested in purchasing another. I took a test drive in the 2019 SLT1 & was so disappointed! In 2017, GMC down-sized this SUV and I found everything so much smaller than my current model. I personally feel that GMC made a BIG mistake in making this SUV smaller. Enough so that I am looking at other model vehicles (Traverse, Atlas, etc.).

I know it sounds weird, it isn't easy to figure out how many adults/teens this car seats. The second row bench has space for 3 passengers. The middle seat doesn't have a normal headrest -- it doesn't raise up. Is it safe for an adult or teen to sit there? It should not be this complicated.

Noisy and feeling of instability

I just had a 3 week rental, upgrading to what Avis called a 7 passenger, but this Acadia only had 6 seats. (and only 2 cup holders, so I got to clean milkshake out of the carpets). The highway noise was 67 db, about the same as my 737 flight, although shy of the 72 db Boeing 767. So conversation on the highway was out of the question. It was also very poor at resisting the cross winds of Florida I 95, and wavy roads gave a swinging or unstable sensation that my wife complained about all day. The center screen is very poor, disconnecting from car-play at random, requiring unplugging and plugging in the phones again, then finding the hidden Waze icon. With the size of the screen, they could have much more there, without searching. I'm not sure if it was a factory setting or another renter, but the doors were programed to lock as soon as the door was closed, so after opening the door for my wife, I had to unlock the driver's side again. Eventually I found how to reprogram this. On the plus side, the rear camera and approaching object warning was good. But it is an awfully big car for only 6 passengers, and very little luggage room when those last two seats are up.

The 2019 Acadia SLT 1 will only run parked for 1 hour. Not sure what I will do this summer as I bring the dog with me traveling and need the AC to keep the suv cool.
Nice but not comfy for a larger person

I just bought my Acadia a month ago. Love everything about the car except for one very big detail. I work I would has noticed this before purchasing it. The front seat are very small for a vehicle this size. My Butt doesn’t even fit on the seat and becuse the backs taper off towards the headrest there’s no upper back support. Especially going into turns. I feel like I’m going to slip off the seat. I actually measured them because I thought I was crazy. They are the small aft seats I have come across. I’ve measured Subarus, Nissan Murano No Nissan Maxima. All have much larger seats and backs. This is a huge let down and I will be looking to trade it in already.
