Safe , reliable and durable from the beginning!

Great SUV overall, nicely designed especially the 2-tone exterior color; straight-forward interior with durable materials strewn throughout the cabin. Straight 6 cyl is easily one of GMs best, transmission is not far behind. Safety is the upmost importance: after being t-boned at high speed (55+mph) by a drunk driver on the passenger door; the passenger walked away with only superficial injuries. The offensive vehicle that struck us was a midsized sedan that was completely obliterated from the firewall/ door hinge pillar forward, the engine was in 1 piece about 30 feet from where the sedan rested after impact. Took 6 weeks of repairs ($6k) than SUV was back on the road blazin' Trails again!

Big, tall, safe, dependable SUV

Owned my '04 LT for the last 14 years, 130K mi, second owner. Other than the usual maintenance I had to replace: leaking variable valve timing solenoid, leaking fuel pressure regulator, climate control door actuators, ac compressor. Not bad, nothing major, the first 2 items an owner can do himself at very low cost. I like the SUV a lot since it's tall, wide, heavy, thick doors, safe. I get 16mpg city, 22 hwy - typical for all 6 cyl SUV and fine with me to have the comfort and safety. Toyota sedan came through red light n hit me in front R corner as I was turning L onto the road, felt less than a bumper car bump. I drove away, she was towed away.
