  Best suv weve ever had - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By pands from mo. - February 11 - 5:16 pm

  We love the interior, everything is Handy. The awd has gotten us through several bad snow storms. The leather heated seats are very comfortable and plenty of room for trips. Couldnt be ant happier.

  Chevy Traverse - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By 2009 Chevy Traverse - February 1 - 9:44 am

  My 2009 traverse is a year old and Im not impressed with the gas mileage. About 16 mpg is the best that I have got. Also, I have tan leather seats and the drivers and passengers seat have black on them, they have been replaced once and now they are doing it again. Its like the leather is not real leather. Even the dealership could not get the black off the leather. Very disappointing.

  A great comeback..... - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Chevy Lover - January 30 - 10:04 am

  Well I was raised on Chevys and for many reasons, fell away from them in the late Seventies. GM finally saw the light and has produced some fine vehicles that compare and surpass in ways the Japanese vehicles. The Traverse is one such vehicle. The smooth quiet ride, the agile handling, the options to please. It may not have an over 30 mpg, but its a welcome gift for large guys like Myself. It surpasses the Honda Pilot and anyone looking for a roomy SUV/CUV should definitely test drive this vehicle! It also heralds some great safety ratings as well...and the AWD is great in winter conditions. Try it youll love it!

  Love this SUV! - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Jen - January 19 - 12:31 am

  I have enjoyed this care VERY much! It drives like a dream and is cozy and quiet inside and out. It is wonderful in the snow too, though I havent driven it in VERY deep snow yet. It sticks to the road and I have yet to slide in bad weather. I feel very safe driving it. My kids love the DVD and XM radio. Gas mileage blows. I think GM needs to be honest in that department. Ive had this car for a month now and I cant seem to break 16 mpg no matter what I do. Good thing the car is WONDERFUL in many other aspects...I can overlook the mpg, I guess.

  Great Car! - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By DOzmore - January 6 - 10:19 am

  I love my Traverse. The 7 seats are so versatile and I use them all. The leather interior is easy to clean and keep clean. I really love to drive it, very comfortable - especially on road trips. Theres so much room in the back! I really love this car.

  Tire Chains Not Allowed - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By BRYCE W KOPPER - December 21 - 7:51 pm

  We love our 2009 Traverse but if you dont live in the mountains where chains are sometimes required you dont realize the problem you will encounter. Tire chains will not work on the Traverse which could pose quite a problem if you want to go skiing and youre not allowed to go up the mountain because the stupid vehicle was built so you cant use chains. What does GM expect? To be pulled up the mountain by a team of donkeys? Im sorely disappointed with this flaw.

  Broke down with less than 4K miles! - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By recker - December 16 - 8:42 pm

  You would think that after making a 30K purchase, it would be reliable. GM dropped the ball. After owning for 4-5 months and less than 4000 miles our traverse has an "intermittent electrical issue", and will not start. The service department had to call GMs engineer dept to find out how to fix the issue. The fact that the service dept had to call GM on how to fix the problem is a scary thought. Never again!!

  What about deep snow? - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Rondog - December 10 - 12:56 pm

  I bought a 2009 Traverse AWD LTZ in July. I have been loving this new vehicle until yesterday. We had 14" of snow fall overnight. I cleared my driveway and backed into the street. A couple of 4 wheel drive vehicles had gone through but the plows had not. I was stuck immediately. I turned off the traction control and could not move the vehicle. My neighbors had to push me back into my driveway. I had a 4WD S-10 Blazer and was never stuck once in 10 years! I am so frustrated with this vehicle. I live in WI and we have some winters with numerous heavy snow falls. I think it is ground clearance and tire design. My other vehicles were dedicated 4WD and not AWD.

  Great! - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By dexterm - December 6 - 8:37 pm

  We purchased this SUV about 2 months ago and love it so far. We have been on a couple of road trips and it fits our family of 4 perfectly. It is roomy, drives nicely and the kids love the DVD player.

  Chevy Traverse is Dependable 7 Safe - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By ChevyLuva - December 6 - 11:36 am

  I have owned several new cars, many makes and models and so far the Chevy Traverse is my absolute favorite. It is dependable, safe, modern and roomy. It also looks classy and expensive while still affordable and realistic to own. It perfectly suits the single driver and accommodates the soccer mom transporting kids and groceries! I absolutely adore my vehicle and cant wait to drive it in the snow.
