for that just leave yourself more room when behind someone

I look at the Explorer and to tell you honestly, it isn't all that great in terms of features and comfort for all your passengers. The only thing I see in that explorer is the driver seat and the HP. The rest is just NoT there. For that money, I go for the 2nd gen traverse. The ease of getting in and out and the cargo space on the traverse is the better buy for its value.

Summer and liana vlogs how much did you pay for it

What is your avg mpg on your Traverse? I’m considering a used Premier

Do you still love it?

I got the 2018 AWD LT model. There's nothing to not like about this 2 gen traverse. Comfort and easy getting in and out is a breeze. I love this bodystyle. This is the holy grail of everything I want in a midsize SUV. There's not a whole of them out there on the road so this just made it even sweeter. My only small minor gripe is the torque is on the low side. Wish GM had up the torque to make it scream...yeahhhh....baby.

I came from an 07tahoe to the 2018traverse.same space,better gas milage,and more gadgets to toy with inside.i miss my v8 and manly feel along with the rugged 4wheel drive

Its_All_Kim isn’t it the same car?

cbk2033 technically they are but the Acadia is smaller while the traverse is bigger

Its_All_Kim yeah they made the Acadia small in the new generation. Sucks

cbk2033 they used to be

Ian Marbella no the gmc Acadia is slightly shorter then the traverse

they tried to sell me a 2017 and I didn't like the feel.i chose the 2018 and love it

you are screwed thats what

this review sucks--it is nothing but advertising--and he skipped over the problem of the start/stop system that can't be turned off-a deal killer

yes he did

SuzukiKid400 At what point?

Mazda CX-9 is my choice for this segment

Nick B I love Mazda just as much as the next guy (I have a Mazda) but the CX-9 isn't that good... to be clear, it's a great drivers car, but third row sucks, and that really the only advantage the CX-9 has over the CX-5. If you need third row, I hate to say it, but the Mazda doesn't work nearly as well as others... unless you take driving dynamics and looks over functionality of a 3 row SUV. And if you don't need a 3rd row, why not get a CX-5? Still looks great and has good leg room and storage.

well we bought our knowing the third row wasn't going to be used very often. We just like having the versatility to pop it up and have 2 extra seats if we need it. I completely agree don't, get me wrong the third row is definitely meant for just children or short trips. We always have it left down. We test drive just about every entry in the segment and really liked the build quality, materials, driving dynamics, the style and features for the price the cx-9 had. We bought it knowing we weren't going to be hauling passengers on a daily basis, but we bought it over the cx 5 because A- we have a 2016 and the newest gen cx5 wasn't out and B- the option to have a little more cargo, some of the features(1 touch auto windows all around, and real wood trim, and Napa leather), and available 2 extra seats.

News Media-one i would get a atlas

Winston Dias I would get the traverse over the atlas...not really a fan of the atlas tbh

HodsBroo I went with the explorer but the highlander is a good buy as well.

Highlander will be my next car but I wish Toyota would make it a pinch bigger...I have an X5M and to me the best size for this segment

running out of ideas

Right?!

kilojoule11 His name is Dan.

DILF 🤤

Dark Man No his name is Micah

I would let him do things to me I dare not speak of. I am a straight man.

Ramon Gonzalez Yeah I would buy a explorer with the 3.5 duratec, very reliable engine.

Puff the Magic Dragon they really are i had a 2003 focus with the duratec engine and i ran it all the way to 230k miles until my cousim crashed it before that no problems

Ramon Gonzalez Yeah my uncle had a early 2000s focus, ran until 400k, it finally died at that point, well I assume, all he said is it doesn't run anymore, but that doesn't mean the entire engine is shot. Up until that point, the biggest issue he had was he had to buy a new coolant container for like $20. I hate when people say Ford's are unreliable, they have had some issues but from my experience and the experiences of basically everyone I know, they're right up there with Toyota. Again,not saying they're perfect, saying they get alot of undeserved hate. Thankfully it seems that most people are growing up and realizing ford wasn't what they were in the 70's and acknowledging their many improvements. Ford's like America's kia, a brand that had a troubled past, but is great now and people just need to let go of what they once were.

Ramon Gonzalez Funny thing, I was considering a traverse when I was shopping for a midsized crossover, heard good things about them but it goes to show no product is perfect. I genuinely hope things work out for you. If you are looking at getting a new suv, I would advise you to stay away from the new pathfinders and pilots, the new pathfinder is the least reliable in it's segment and the pilot has been slammed by quite a few engine, transmission and electronic reliability issues, the pilots before 2015 were good, but they screwed up with the 2016 redesign.

Puff the Magic Dragon you are very right on that. The only thing i could suggest people with fords do is just to maintain them. Simple maintenance goes far with those cars. If my focus hadnt been wrecked i would probably still be driving it to this day. And as for the pilot issue im not planning on getting honda or toyota anytime soon so thats not even in question i would rather get a kia tbh sounds dumb but toyota and honda are over charging for those suvs. They cost almost as much as a benz.

James Island Fishing Literally rides better than my old bmw 5 series, it's insane, one of the best family cars out there.

Puff the Magic Dragon the 3.5 ecoboost is such a powerful and efficient engine

James Island Fishing I went with the 3.5 na just for long term reliability.

I leave my 3rd row folded down and enjoy the super sized cargo area

Front or awd

@@evolowe thank u, ended up getting a 2018 equinox and now i want to die😑 its been a nightmare

@@miguelcastillo6708 I traded my 2018 equinox for a used 2018 traverse 3lt leather and it was a fantastic upgrade.

@@evolowe id get nothing fi my equinox, battery died so the theft light came on n key not working, tail lift stop working, the tire sensors stop working the gas tank stuck on full😑 omg what did i do🤦‍♂️

@@miguelcastillo6708 a bad battery in newer chevy cars present a lot of electrical issues. Did you replace the battery and still have those same issues?

I’m sorry autocorrect

sure but my mother totaled hers

it look nothing like a durango

They have alot to worry about the Pacifica!

Robby Robinson You mean ford. The explorer owns this segment.

No kidding...what did you get instead? I'm thinking 2020 Palisade.
