I love the styling, the ride, the storage, the peppy 6 cylinder engine, the quality leather seats, the storage and pulling ability....and just everything! I have a 2019 SLT-1 and that is so well equipped. It's beautiful and is the perfect size for me...not too big, not too small, Goldilocks says it's "just right!" UPDATE: Yes still love it. No problems, great running vehicle, paint still looks beautiful, everything works perfect. I am very happy with the perfect car for me!!

GMC Acadia 2020

Certainly have liked the amenities that GMChas offered in past BUT the 2020 Acadia Denali has been DOWNSIZED & no longer fits the needs of this family which is definitely WHY we have chosen another vehicle—The Yukon 2020 Denali has NOT upgraded their interior space & left the gar shift on the steering wheel which is very —OUTDATED!! Had to leave GMC altogether-reluctantly.

I have owned 3 previous Acadia’s, I was not aware of how much they had cut the size of the vehicle, it is almost a small size SUV, Also my drivers seat is very uncomfortable, it does not have near as much movement as my previous Acadias. I am sorry I bought it and I am trying to trade it.

Overall a nice SUV. Back up camera not very clear, the one on my Mustang GT is 10 times better in clarity. The radio is too complex, . Did I mention NO CD PLAYER. Some college idiot must have came up with the complexity on this SUV. I'm 54 and would much rather a simple to operate car than this. Has a auto shift down when braking going down hill,hate it. Now the GOOD Average fuel economy 24-26 MPG It handles well, has good power and shifts well. It is well for setting 5, but the 3rd row seating is only for kids. Nice option is the buttons on the door handles to lock/unlock the doors. Nice leather on the dash and steering wheel. I only have 184 miles on it. Maybe in time I will get use to its complicity or ignore it. If you love all the extras, usb, bluetooth, on star, xm radio, and so on the this would be a great SUV for you. What would be awsome is if they would go back to the days where you could order a car the way you wanted, not the way the manufacturer tells you what you get. Very comfortable to ride in, I have back problems but this rides very nice. To sum up as you can tell, I HATE the radio, But from what I can tell so far everything else very good. Warning about the oil, it takes dexos oil, so make sure you use the correct stuff. I now have 3,000 miles on it. It would be more, but i perfer to drive my Santa fe over the Acadia due to its simplicity. The reason i purchased the Acadia was it had a V6 and not a little cylinder turbo.
