Hey, Hey! Congrats on your growing family :) Fun times! So the Enclave and Acadia are basically the same vehicle - the Enclave has more luxury and tech toys - but you'll have to pay for them :) The three - Enclave, Acadia and Explorer have functional third row seating - so it comes down to styling - drive experience and value. So - the Enclave and Acadia have been updated for 2013 - with updates you get better technology and amenities and a car that looks new longer.

@Loadfaster not on the model that I tested I believe that they (GM) was looking at incorporating it in the Enclave, but I'll have to check to see if it is available. Thanks for the kind words and the question :) Tony

Cont'd - the Explorer is about mid - cycle and may be updated or refreshed sooner. If looking newer longer matters to you - go with the Enclave, or Acadia. (depending on your wallet :) All three are great for family use. The Ford Infotainment system has lots of critics - so you'll want to keep an eye on that. What I suggest is testing them all and using the other models as leverage with the competing dealers. The Grand Cherokee is my favorite - but it's smaller - Hope this helps!

@Stallion3863 Hey there! I really enjoyed my time in the Enclave. It shares it's platform with the Traverse and Acadia, but is the most upscale and has the best driving dynamics of the three -- costs the most too :) It's been listed as a recommended vehicle by Consumer Reports so I'd give it the thumbs up. Nice power, great fit and finish - lots of people & Stuff hauling capacity.

@SudoBaker cont'd the Acadia starts of at around 33k and you can take it up to 45k with upgrades. The Traverse was my least favorite - in fact I didn't edit the review because I wanted to make sure that I didn't get a lemon from the rental company. It had the least inspiring ride of the three - but it has gotten pretty good reviews from Car Mags so you'll have to see. expect to start (MSRP) at about 30k -up to 40k. I hope this helps. Let me know what you think after you test them all :)

That Buick was nicer than I thought it would be. Your review makes it appear as roomy as a limo, and I agree that a touchscreen would of been a good idea.

Oops. Funny u mention the "Touch Screen" I was just thinking this morning that everyone thinks Touch Screens are cool but I am starting to think when the whole car is touch screen on the dash we will miss the physical buttons and the hardware and all of its glorious design work. And u would think it would be cheaper in the long haul to put a touch screen over manufacturing dials knobs switches, buttons, if you in cooperate all the functions in the 1 touch screen.
@mbchudno11 жыл бұрын
nice review, don't know why you picked on absence of touch screen, i think its not a big deal considering car has no navi. if it had navi, i would understand, but touch screen to control audio and climate suck. I will take physical buttons any day of the week. they are more convenient, you can feel them without having to take your eyes off the road...etc.

We travel between NC and TX quite a bit and hit the beach alot, I'm wanting to get out of our 07 Sonata. Right now it's between the new Jeep Grand Cherokee, Acadia, Explorer, and Enclave. If you had to rate from these choices, how would you rate them?

@SudoBaker Hey - I've test all three - check out my review of the Acadia if you haven't already done so. Here's the average guy's take: they are all basically built off of the same platform - so seating and storage capacity is very similar. For my money the Enclave is the way to go - you can get into one for about 38K with AWD and you can option up to over 45K easily. This vehicle had the best ride and lux feel to me. The second choice would be the Acadia -- the styling is more vanilla
