I appreciate all the info, Nick!

We have been driving it all around, and I have been doing tons of research. The timing chain issues are abundant. I think we are going to look at Tahoes, and (gasp) Explorers, and make up our minds.
A good ol' LS is a good engine for us :D

No issues with my parents' Enclave so far... At least 60k on it, and I believe it's a 2010 or 2011...


Tahoe/Suburban is more comfortable as a driver, though.

A friend of ours has a 2011 Traverse and it has 130k on it with no issues. I change the oil on it for them. They seem to forget to bring it in and it comes in anywhere from 6k to 9k on the oil.

Also...don't let size fool you the Acadia had more interior cargo room than the Tahoes of those years too...we were shopping both :)

Yep we looked at new Tahoes today, too.
Screw it, I ordered a maxed out SLT2 Acadia in Red
Momma did not like the Denali wood :D

No, they aren't. I really like them, and tried to buy a shiny new one today. The wife fell in love with the GMC

Yeah, Susan didn't like the Denali Acadia either. We loved our SLT2. Pretty much had everything but NAV. Which we use our phones anyway.

Now the Burb is a different story. LTZ basically comes with everything so we got NAV and the Bluray player second and third row. Also to get the AC seats we had to get the LTZ, it wasn't offered on anything else. GM knows how to get you into an upper model.

Nice color choice! :)
