Big enough to tow an enclosed car trailer
I love my XUV. I have the V8, and fuel mileage gets better with age. If you want mileage, buy a wimpy import. The navagation is great, but make sure you know where you are going because it will get you there, but sometimes not the fastest way. The radio w/XM is great. What can I say about the roof? You can fit everything! I cant wait for the snow!
Review
This vehicle is very practical for home improvement addicts. It carries everything you will need for remodeling. It is easy to clean out the back with a hose. Much more comfortable than our former Ford Explorer. The handling and steering is excellent. I don't know what the review that said it was spongey. You want spongey, drive my old Ford Explorer. The turning radius isn't great when making those u-turns for garage sales, though. Also, mileage is averaging 13 MPH town and 16 MPH road, not that great. A problem with visibility out the back window, it's a bit too high to see those little cars behind you.
GMC Envoy XUV
My XUV is a very versitile vehicle. I love it for hauling dogs, tall cargo like trees from the nursury and other big or dirty stuff in the back cargo area. The passenger compartment is first class and comfortable. I love the automatic windshield wipers. I have the V8 version which has plenty of pick up and really goes. I think the fuel mileage is very good for the size of the engine and vehicle. I really will never have another vehicle without OnStar. When my lease is up I am going to get another just like it.
A great car
Great car
My XUV
They poorly planned the console/CD holder area. It's not convenient or safe to use while driving. CD's do not go in and out easily
