  Love My Traverse - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By L.A - March 4 - 5:20 am

  I love everything about this car! The ride is quiet and smooth , it has plenty of space, cargo and storage areas. The gas is not 33 mpg but it is decent for a vehicle in its class. I feel safe in this vehicle with all of the safety options installed. I love the exterior. The traverse has a classy yet sassy look. I have 2nd row captains chairs which w/o the console makes the interior look even bigger. I am very pleased with this vehicle.

  Time To Buy - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Doug - February 8 - 2:56 pm

  My wife and I just purchase this vehicle. I need to tell you that this is one of the best models that Chevy has come up with in a long time. We were looking at the Tahoe and found that it didnt fit the needs of a family. I highly recommend that if you are looking for a mini-van and a SUV buy this vehicle. It is very powerful and loaded with extras. Opt for the leather and DVD.

  Best Chevy in a long, long time.... - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By waveho - January 12 - 11:36 am

  Have had about a week now, but immediately took on a 7-hour each-way trip over Easter to visit family. Very good driving vehicle. Quality seems very high. Engine is more than adequate, even though we moved from our beloved 02 Suburban. Seats on all three levels are better and roomier than the much bigger Burb! Not quite the road presence as the Burb, but what else does? Air conditioned seats should be standard on all cars! They are just wonderful. Rear entertainment system w/wireless headphones a total necessity for the two boys in the back. First time for them; they loved them. Navigation hiccuped a few times, and Im hopeful the dealership will address this. Good traction.

  Love it - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Dee - October 1 - 1:06 am

  This is a perfect family vehicle. Our new Chevy traverse is awesome. It was love at first sight. The smooth drive, the panoramic view, the cargo space & safety features were definite selling points. We have always purchased GM vehicles, and have always been satisfied with their performance & dependability. We still have our 1999 Suburban & w/200,000 miles,it looks & runs great...were hoping to say the same thing about our Traverse in 10 years. Looking forward to enjoying family trips with our grandchildren :)

  Consider me a fan! - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Jason - September 4 - 3:13 pm

  Ive owned my Traverse for a few weeks, and have put 700 miles on it. So far, its been everything that Ive expected, and I expected great things. There is plenty of room for my family of four (2 yr old and 7 mo old). Sliding the 2nd row seats back as far as they go gives a ton of room to get the kids in and out of their car seats. The cargo room behind the 3rd row fits our ginormous double stroller with no issues. I get 22-24 MPG on the hwy and 19 overall. Not bad, but I feel it could be better. The roof rack cross rails whistle terribly above 50MPH (Ive removed them since). The 3rd row would be a tight fit for 3 average size adults, little head and hip room (Im 59" 189lbs).

  Best family car ever - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Michael - June 24 - 8:46 am

  We just bought this SUV, upsizing as our 3 young kids get older and want to bring friends along. We live in a very snowy area and need AWD and were not thrilled with the idea of the Toyota Sienna. We looked at the Pilot, MDX, Highlander, etc. and were wholly unimpressed. Drove and bought this SUV the same afternoon. Great design and ridiculous pricing. GM is on the way back (probably bankrupt, but will re-emerge better than ever). Dont bother with the GM standard DVD, get an aftermarket for a fraction of the cost.

  Nice change from a family van - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By cpannarbor - March 18 - 9:36 pm

  We traded in our Mazda MPV for the Traverse. Out kids have adjusted to losing the sliding doors and really like the car. Mommy and Daddy love the car. It has great handling and acceleration. There is plenty of storage and too many great features to list.

  Very , Very HAPPY! - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By BRYAN - January 19 - 8:00 pm

  Had my Traverse for about 5 weeks. Drives great , well responsive good acceleration even loaded. Tows just as good as my Jeep GC. The best thing we like about is the interior. Especially the capts chairs in the second row. My gas mileage is about 21 mpg avg between hwy/cty. Better then my jeep which is about 18 mpg avg.

  Amazing SUV! - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By Narg - December 14 - 5:06 am

  This SUV is an eye opener for what it delivers to its driver. Ive purchased driven a number of GM products over the past 18 years, and love how the quality and features that GM provides has grown continueally during that time. Yes, they used to be bad 20 years ago. But today, wow! Do not miss out on trying a Traverse before you buy anything. Even the dealership experience was the best Ive ever had too. Im moving from a full size pickup to this mid-sized SUV. Originally planned to buy a Tahoe, but the economy has downsized my buying ability slightly. Thank goodness GM made this SUV, it fits perfectly!

  great vehicle to purchase for family - 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
  By army wife - November 15 - 8:50 pm

  We are a family that does a lot of traveling due to being military and far from home. We looked at many vehicles and this was a great selection for safety and gas mileage. The vehicle is really comfortable and my children love the space and comfort while traveling. We were reluctant to get a minivan so this seemed to be the perfect fit because it looked sleek yet had many nice "minivan" qualities. We seriously considered the Acadia but this was a better price point and very similar to the Acadia. Overall I think it is a great choice for families who are resistant to getting a minivan but still want the safety and decent gas mileage!
