This Year's Model Updates:

For 2004, the Envoy adds several items to the options list, including XM Satellite Radio (and a new stereo to accommodate it), a DVD-based navigation system and adjustable pedals. There are also a few minor equipment changes this year. In SLE models, the door trim is now vinyl instead of cloth, and lumbar adjustment for the front seats is two-way manual rather than the previous four-way feature. Additionally, there is no longer a power outlet in the cargo area, and SLE badging will no longer grace the B-pillars. SLT models also get a revised steering wheel. Lastly, when playing a DVD in Envoys with the optional entertainment system, you can now hear it through the audio system in addition to the wireless headphones.

Pros:
  • Plenty of cool options, strong six-cylinder power, attractive interior design.
Cons:
  • Numb steering, low-grade interior pieces, sloppy handling around corners.

    So far, we have been very pleased with this vehicle. We did a lot of research prior to purchasing this vehicle, mainly comparing it with the Jeep Cherokee. The salesman we worked with on the Envoy was very knowledgeable on the vehicle and its many features. There was no hype, just facts. All in all, an enjoyable experience and as I said above, we are pleased with the vehicle so far.

  • Best SUV yet - 2004 GMC Envoy

    I have had the Envoy for four months. No problems. Ride is excellent and much quieter than the 1999 Bravada traded in. I think the interior design is outstanding compared to the Explorer or the 4Runner.

    The GMC Envoy is responsive to cornering yet offers a very smooth and quiet ride. The engine is strong and carries 5 persons with no problems. We made a 5 hour trip and everyone was comfortable and not fatiqued. Options are well designed and easy to use. It is a big improvement over our last SUV - an Isuzu Trooper. Gas mileage is OK at 19-21 MPG.

    This is a solid, body-on-frame truck -- no jacked-up-car SUV wannabe. I also think it is one of the best looking SUVs on the market. GM went to great lengths to create a soft ride, but with the result that it compromises handling. I installed aftermarket shocks, springs and sway bar to lower it and give it the handling it should have had from the factory (see what Saab has done with its version). The engine and transmission are great, but do not work as well together as they ought to. Im looking forward to a Hypertech or Superchips programmer. So far, however, I have had zero problems and this is a very comfortable, entertaining vehicle. My dogs love it!

  • Fun to drive Envoy - 2004 GMC Envoy
    By -

    I have had my Envoy for over a month and it has been a great vehicle. Its comfortable and a smooth ride. It was either this one or the Jeep Grand Cherokee but I noticed that the amount of power was awesome and its roomy too for the whole family

  • Solid SUV - 2004 GMC Envoy
    By -

    I have owned my 2004 GMC Envoy for a little over a year now and Im very pleased with it. The ride quality is great for long trips and I love the exterior styling. Its been fantastic for my many trips to Home Depot. The wide cargo opening is definitely a plus. The dual climate control is great because my wife is always cold and Im always warm. I have brought it back to the dealer a few times for a few problems that were fixed under warranty immediately. The gas mileage could be better, but I knew about that before I bought it. Since I dont drive too much, it hasnt been a problem even with the high gas prices.

  • Overall Great Vehicle - 2004 GMC Envoy
    By -

    I changed from a 95 Blazer to the Envoy, it was like going from night to day. I was intially dissapointed with the fuel economy, but after a 1,000 miles the engine seemed to break in and I went from 14 mpg to 17 mpg of city/Hwy driving. I have been very pleased with the vehicle.

I have found it reliabe but it has had some problems, Wiper relay replaced first 1,000 miles, and some front end problems. But GM has provided superior service on any problems. Would I buy another, absolutly,
