I never intended to buy this car, but looking at the competition, this was by far the best deal. We were able to trade in cloth interior for leather and it wasn't even a problem. The back seat has a ton of leg room, more than a standard SUV. It has yet to be in the shop, which we are thankful for. It's a nice, easy drive and we feel very safe taking our son wherever we need to go.

The Equinox has a ton of space. It seats five, but the leg room in the entire car is tremendous. The car has a lot of features such as Eco mode, lane departure, and blind spot indicators. The car is exceptionally quiet especially for an SUV. The navigation system isn't great though as you need an OnStar subscription to access it, and the gas mileage leaves much to be desired. This is a model that I would definitely recommend to someone who enjoys SUVs.

Good Car
The vehicle is built extremely well. It drives like a car but gives you the feeling of sitting up higher without the feel of a truck. The interior is really nice and easy to keep clean. The engine is great and gets good gas mileage, but it doesn't pick up speed as well as other vehicles. In addition, it doesn't get as good of gas mileage as the maker claims. The standards in the vehicle are very standard. It is worth it to get a higher trim package in order to get a stronger engine and more luxury electronics. The blue tooth in the car works very well, but doesn't work with anything other than talking on a phone. This is extremely disappointing as you must bring a USB plug in order to play music from any electronics. The outside of the vehicle is comparable with other crossover suvs and cleans very nicely/easily. This is a great family vehicle. It can easily accommodate two car seats and fit another person in the back seat. The seats clean extremely well; even milk, crunched in food or cereal. The floor carpets clean better than any car I've ever owned. The car is so roomy, you can fit two adults, two car seats and a Christmas tree without putting anything on the roof or having to tie the trunk shut!
