  • Pros and Cons - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox

    I love my car but there are a few issues I have. First of all, the CD player is a mess. I have already had one replaced and another replacement is on the way. The CDs get stuck in the player and will not come out. Second, light interior. I have had a light interior in cars before but never as easily stained as my Equinox i.e., my hair was wet when I got in the car and it made a water stain on the head rest that will not go away. Lastly, at times I have noticed the car will make knocking noises or jerk when I turn corners. The adjustable back seat is great! I can make extra room for the kids on long trips or make extra space in the back when I go shopping. Overall, great car!

    I love my Equinox. I read a lot of reviews about it and decided I needed to go find out for myself. Once I drove it.......I loved it! I thought with all of the bad reviews out there that this car was awful, but looked good. I test drove it on a Friday night and was there Saturday afternoon to pick it up! Ive only had it for 3 days, but I havent had any problems. I also chose to buy the demo because it was already "broken in". Due to this, I get great gas mileage! :-) My family loves it but couldnt believe I got rid of my sports car for a SUV!!! I would highly recommend everyone to buy one, but dont because I enjoy not seeing too many on the road. I like the looks I get! :-)

    Runs good, looks good, and feels good! Good pricing, easy to drive, holds the road really good. I cant find anything I dont like about. Its a great buy! Im still learning about how all the features work, but they are very easy to understand.

    I have driven my Chevy back and forth to Detroit within a month of purchase, I must say, it was a very comfortable ride. It is spacious for the luggage and just a pleasant vechile to be in on a long trip.

    I tried to find this car for awhile. Finally found it, test drove it and bought it. Love everything about it. It surely is a head turner. Smooth ride, roomy interior, and sleek exterior design. I highly recomend this SUV. Worth every penny.

    Really enjoy driving this vehicle. Feels like it sticks to the road with the AWD. Has been driven 2,000 miles in two months and it has pep and rides great. Bought it after the employee pricing incentives and paid less. Under $21,000. I still own a Pathfinder but the Equinox drives better.

  • Good Reliable 4-Wheel Drive Security - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox

    When you get out of this car you look at it and say, "That car is much smaller than the one I was driving". The Equinox is roomy, quiet, and peppy enough, gets good mileage and is comfortable for four big adults. It misses grab handles, lighted vanity mirrors, built in garage remote control, under hood light and opening rear window. It is a good buy and a winner among many similar competitors.

    It handles just like a car. The styling is very nice. I am really enjoying my SUV. I have found driving on the highway much better.
