Bravo 4 my Bravada!

I usually don't get anything but base model cars, so when I found this Platinum Edition Bravada, I wasn't sure if I should buy it, until I drove it! It handles great, and is so very comfortable! I had a Chevrolet Suburban before this and I am loving the gas mileage that I'm getting! Especially since I'm still getting all the good things I needed out of a vehicle, like 4 doors and loads of cargo room..and the heated leather seats. They are a very welcome addition in winter here in New Mexico! My a/c goes from "sahara" to "icicle" in less than 2.5 mins! yes.."Bravo 4 my Bravada" !

I bought this truck as a family vehicle and it's not reliable at all. I bought the truck for 7 grand and I've replaced almost everything in it. The transmission went, then the gas pump, then the radiator and so on. I've had this truck for a 2 years now and I've driven it only probably 4 months

Could have been designed better

Bought this vehicle (for wife)used with 20k miles on it. Reportedly an off-lease vehicle. The vehicle is a gas hog. It gets slightly better mileage than my Quad-cab Doge Ram 1500 that weighs 4500 pounds. The Bravada's transmission gave out at 42000 miles. My wife's last GM had a transmission replaced at 30K miles and my last GMC Sierra had tranmission rebuilt at 37000 miles. The vehicle is underpowered. You have to floor-it to get out of your own way. With a little ingenuity, this car should have been GM's flagship. This car should have a V-8 rather than the 4.3 V-6. Climate control should have been digital - instead of knobs.

Bought this truck with 150K for $3000. Didn't want anything this loaded but the price was right. The only thing I have done is change the tranny fluid/filter. Driver window just went out and the CD changer never worked. So far it has been great in the winter. I love how the AWD doesn't require any driver input. This can hold a lot of cargo. I once fit 35 large PC's in back. Interior is laid out nicely with the exception of the CD changer which eats up the console. There are plenty of squeaks and rattles but it is 9 years old with 153K miles. I get around 16MPG on dry pavement but mileage drops a bit when the AWD is being used a lot. The heated seats are a blessing in the cold PA winters.

I won't say this was worst car I have ever purchased. I purchased in 2007 finished my last payment January 2010. And no problems while i was making payments. As soon as i paid it off, the fuel pump went. No problems, a friend helped me change it, i was back on the rode. Then in Feb. the Radiator busted on the highway. No problems, got it fixed. Then in April, the CV Joint broke, its good it broke as soon as i got home. fixed, abs broke, when CV broke. and i didn't know that you have to replace arms as well. And no one new that the wheel bearings were bad. so this year along I've paid $1545 in repairs. I just have small things to fix. Other then that its a good vehicle.

I have enjoyed my Bravada since the day I bought it. I bought it with 23000 miles approximately and it now has 60000 miles on it 6 years later. I love this car.

suv for the older couple

This is a good all purpose vehicle for the older couple who want something other than a van or car. This vehicle handles well and has four wheel disc brakes for added safety. This vehicle handles well in traffic and parks easily in crouded parking lots.
