after 3 years of the Jimmy this was a definate improvement. Drives like a car and has the same power.More room especially for tall drivers and passengers. If you are short get the optional power driver's seat.

I like the styling & handeling of the vehicle. Quality wise, it's the worst vehicle I've owned since my 1974 Maverick. I've had more things replaced/repaired then I have space to list in this review. GMC customer service say's there sorry. Dealer say's there sorry. I don't think either are as sorry as I am for buying the heap of scrap.

After 11 months of ownership, complaints are minor. Top of seat back is too low for 6'5" driver. With tilt steering wheel in comfortable position, can't read speedometer (blocked by top of steering wheel). Initially, fuel economy was horrid; improved to reasonably close to EPA ratings after a few thousand miles. CD/cassette stereo and limited slip only options on our Envoy. No mechanical problems. Don't break a fancy headlight: cost a fortune to replace! Oil changes are expensive: SEVEN quarts of oil!

First off, Edmunds has an axe to grind against GM, and I can't fathom their poor review of this vehicle. This is a superb vehicle, and compares well against the truck-based and cross-over midsize SUVs. It looks sharp outside, drives strongly and smoothly and securely, and has a great looking interior. I have put on 11,000 miles in less than 5 months, and I have no reliability problems with this vehicle.

I've truly enjoyed my Envoy. It's true as they say "It's not more than you need, just more than your used to". For the first few months I didn't even realize it had a built in air compressor with hose. The comfort factor is amazing, it rides just like a car thanks to the air ride suspension. The power is great! I've had just 2 problems with the vehicle. The 4 wheel drive kept automatically shifting itself into geer. We went through 3 tries at the dealership until it was fixed. The 2nd problem was that the air compressor went out on my first use. Since it's been replaced neither problems have reoccured.
