The Chevy Equinox is a well-built, sturdy vehicle. The cargo area is perfect, with a mix between carpeting and solid, sturdy plastic that makes moving things in and out a breeze. The latches for folding down the back seats are a breeze. The body shape is very sporty with durable bumpers, just in case.. There is enough space in the cargo area to load pieces of furniture in the back for transporting when needed without the need to rent a trailer.. And to top it off, there is a roof rack and the tow package is a standard feature. When gardening time comes around, I can load all the veggie and flower plants in one trip, along with fertilizer and any other gardening needs to get those gardens going. The infotainment features are top notch -- phone connect, Sirius, touch pad for moving through the menu. It is a super comfortable vehicle with cup holders in just the right place and right size and console storage that is extremely deep and useful. USB ports in console and another in small storage area in the dash. Plenty of room up front without feeling as though are in a sardine can yet sturdy build for safety. At 66,000 miles, all electronics continue to work as problem. Love the back-up camera for additional safety.

This vehicle has held up well, and anytime someone new gets in the car, I get compliments on its attractiveness. I'm thrilled that there are no rattles, nor have I had any serious issues with this vehicle. Even traveling back and forth to work along with other driving, I rarely have to fill the gas tank more than every two weeks. I'm an avid gardener so I'm hauling a lot of soil, compost, mulch, etc., and it's roomy enough to hold what I need on each nursery visit. The back storage cleans up easily. I love the little "nooks" in the back for holding small items - like a carton of eggs! The two charging ports are a plus and love that I can connect my cell phone if I need to answer a call while driving.
