New Car Help!!
I know this has been asked 10000 times already but here is 10001!
I need the following:
Crossover Back up Camera 3rd Row Captain seats for second row Navigation system Max $45,000
I have a traverse and while I like it I am ready for a change. Wondering if I should jump ship to the Acadia or Buick Enclave?
SO if you have any of the above can you give it a thumbs up or down and maybe say why you like it?
Thanks SO much.

Re: New Car Help!!
I'm not going to be of much help, but I also have the Traverse and when my lease is up I plan on looking for something else.
We are looking into the Acadia or the Dodge Durango. I have also heard that the Santa Fe now has a 3rd row but I'm not sure about all the other features you are looking for.
Good luck!!

Re: New Car Help!!
I'm bias. I adore my Acadia. My lease is up real soon and I'm renewing for a 2017 version.
Edited to say why I like it.
Very easy smooth drive. Love the captain seating, Tons of storage space, nice sleek design, AND I feel safe driving it. Decent on gas too Never had a single issue with it.
And GMC is an American Company!

Re: New Car Help!!
I was car shopping last year (looked at the traverse, enclave and acadia) and I would go with the acadia
The enclave is really nice, but it is a bit more expensive...you can get more for your money with the Acadia

I've got the Durango. I had a saturn vue - equivalent to the equinox. The durango was a nice step up. I was looking at all different cars - Escalade, Suburban, Tahoe, Infiniti, BMW, etc. I absolutely could not decide what I wanted. Ultimately the durango fit the bill for cost and trim level - it had the right combo of sport and luxury.

Considering that Buick, Chevy and GMC are all owned by GM, and the 3 SUVs are sibling cars.... its not that far of a jump.
I haven't been trying any of them out, but what interests me right now is the new CX-9 from Mazda. Really nice style and is supposed to drive really nicely.
There is always the Pilot and the highlander too.

Re: New Car Help!!
I was just car shopping a few weeks ago. The Acadia and Explorer both fit your criteria. I test drove both and like both but you get more for your money with GMC. However, I didn't wind up with either. I would've gotten the Acadia but I really don't like the new body style. They made it narrower, shorter, and more rounded. They were all sold out of 2016s or I would've gotten one. I decided to get the Terrain Denali (but it does not have a third row). I'm not a fan of the Buick.

We just got a new Explorer with everything you list (not captain's chairs, but that was definitely an option) and more. I absolutely love it. We had an Escape and knew we wanted another Ford. The Ford SYNC system is amazing. Our other car is an Acura and the system sucks.

I have the Acadia Denali. It's more than $45k, but that's bc it's the Denali version. The other versions are less. I have a 2015, but I don't like the new 2017 body style.
