  • After the break in period - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    I now have 4k and the rig is running well. I am getting 27.4 mpg on the highway (at 74 mph). This includes mountain pass ups and down. City Im averaging 17.5 to 20.1. So far I am happy with the performance of this rig. I have the SLE-1 AWD. Hope this helps those of you that are not experiencing decent mpg yet.

  • 6 Month Follow-Up - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    Ive now driven my Terrain about 8500 miles, and I have had no problems whatsoever. I can get 32 MPG on highway trips with regular 87 octane gas when I try (real calculated value, not just what the onboard computer states - although it agrees), but I average about 26 MPG on mixed daily commute of about 40 miles. For do-it-yourselfers who change your own oil, be advised you will need a special low-profile socket (about $5.00 online order). The cartridge oil filter is for agile, small hands but manageable. Ride and handling undiminished over the first 6 months. Runs like a top, but its not a muscle car. With four adult passengers, you can notice the change in shifting points.

  • SLE2 FWD - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    Extremely smooth and quiet. Previously owned a 2door Honda Civic. I needed an SUV, but wanted the best gas mileage. After 3 months, 6500 miles, mostly city driving, Ive averaged 22 MPG. Ive done some long road trips, which have not averaged above 27 MPG. I dont count on the dashboard fuel economy- I record and do my own calculating. Even though the mileage seems low on the highway, I am extremely satisfied with the city, which is the main driving for the car anyway.

  • Love my Terrain - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    I chose the Terrain over the Honda CR- V. I really like the back up camera the spaciousness of the interior. It is hard to get used to the lock/unlock button on the control panel instead of on the door. Very pleased with my purchase.

  • It is a great ride - 2010 GMC Terrain

    My wife has a bad back. It is the best car-SUV for her to get in and out of. Great job. Thanks

  • Great Car- and Safe - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    I couldnt wait for this car to be released. It was the first car I had ever brought on my own. I had been reviewing it since August 2009 and when it was finally released I had a hard time finding it because not too many dealers had the fully loaded SLT2. I was a little disappointed that the passenger side didnt have the power seats, the gas mileage, and how the car hesitated when trying to pick up speed but other then that I loved it. My car is totaled due to a hit &run every air bag deployed we were saved! Onstar kicked in pretty quick all the airbags from the front & window passenger side, driver side window & stirring wheel and rear passenger airbags deployed.

  • Glad I bought this truck - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    I bought the fully loaded (except for going with the 18 inch wheels) SLT2 with V6, entertainment system, etc. Ive only had it for 2 weeks now, but I am extremely happy I bought this vehicle. The exterior in carbon black metallic is great - much better than in pictures. And the interior fit and finish is excellent too.

    I like everything about it but the Gas Mileage. Need to achieve 25 before the 32 MPG which is advertised.

  • Nicest vehicle I ever bought! - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    I bought my Onyx Black 2010 GMC Terrain on New Years Eve 2009. I wanted a small SUV with lots of room. I have a champagne taste with a beer pocket book! I researched vehicles for 3 months. I saw this SUV on the Ellen Degeneres Show and fell in love! I had to go to a dealer 100 miles away to find one because no local dealers had any. I have the basic model, as I only drive 2 miles to work and dont need a 4 wheel drive. The standard features alone are incredible, more than any other SUV I looked at! The interior and exterior are beautiful, the ride is fabulous. A tank of gas lasts me two weeks! Never thought I would use the back up camera, but cant live without it! I could go on and on!

  • Love Our Terrain! - 2010 GMC Terrain
    By -

    When I first saw the new Terrains I absolutely hated the design. We looked for three months and since I would be the primary driver, it was my choice. It came down to a Terrain, an Equinox, or a Kia Sorento. I grew to appreciate the design and after driving it for the weekend, bought it on Monday! We have found not one thing to complain about and we both absolutely love it! We bought the AWD since we live in the country. Gas mileage is good and it is loaded with great options! Great job GMC!
