I know I am not the norm, I had my previous car for 12 years. Yes, 12 years. I only had 106,000 and cried like a baby when I sold it to a friend of mine. I have looked at the Envoy since 2004 and decided this was the year to buy it. (Also the last year they are making them) I love my Silver Mist color, have had many a compliment when out driving. I have a sunroof and the nice stereo. I just put 1000 miles on it this weekend. I am kinda disapointed in the gas mileage but I guess it is to be expected with an SUV. I love the staightline 6 I have, it has a lot of get-up-and-go. So in short, love it!!!

The SUV has been great, it has got us through many long road trips. Monthly payment was getting to much so had to downsize to a small car again, but looking forward to being back in a FORD Focus again. Anyone who has mentioned the seats don't fold down flat, WELL THEY DO. We didn't think so at first either until my husband went out one day and figured it out, reading the manual really helped too.

I love my SUV. I bought it Used with 143,000 +. service Engine Light was on for Secondary Air Injection Pump. I read up on that part and found out about condensation in hose under the truck. I pulled he hose off and got a little over a pint of water. I ordered and replaced that part for 56.00. Not $700 as I saw in 1 post. As far as gas mileage it's not as bad as what everyone is posting. Local driving isn't the best but what car really is driving short distance with stop & go traffic. On the highway using Sunoco gas I can get 325 to 360 miles on a tank of gas because I always use the cruise control and keep my distance from other vehicles by going 5 miles slower so I don't have to keep hitting the brakes. I LOVE this SUV. It's an 04 with 159,350 miles on it. Rides just as good as a new Cadillic or other fancy cars. GMC should start building these again with the Inline 6.. I don't know what gas the others are using in their.

This vehicle is a mid size suv on a solid full frame. Handles rough terrain and freeway speeds equally well. I'd buy a new one if I could.

Love the Denali but not the Mileage

Hwy mpg is OK but city mpg is very poor. The seat belt cuts into my neck and needs to be repositioned. Denali exterior is an eye turner but the plastic "woodgrain" console looks cheap and tacky. Seats are comfortable but would prefer a softer leather. When I'm stopped for a light, after 10+ seconds there's a thud-like jolt & sound from under the car. Dealer has no idea what is causing this but has heard others complain about it.
