  Affordable - 2005 GMC Envoy
  By Brian Cable - March 19 - 1:56 pm

  Its been one of the most comfortable vehicles that Ive ever owned. Ive owned a Suburban, a minivan, and new pickups, and so far it has been one of the most stylish, comfortable and most accomadating vehicles that Ive had.

  Envoy- Awesome Vehicle - 2005 GMC Envoy
  By Dan - March 4 - 11:56 pm

  Envoy is a wonderful vehicle with a luxurious looking interior. Very quiet ride, and the vehicle is the perfect size for a family of four. Handling in the winter is excellent in Auto 4WD or in 4WD. I would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone considering a midsize sport utility. The inline 6 cylinder engine is a quiet and smooth operating engine.

  My Envoy - 2005 GMC Envoy
  By James Britland - February 17 - 3:25 pm

  On February 10th, 2005 I forgot to remove a coffee mug from the rear bumper where I left it. Later, I drove 16 miles round trip to visit a relative in the hospital. A short time later my son walked in with the mug asking how long I was going to leave it on the bumper of my Envoy. That is a true test of a smooth ride and handling. I would add that there are a lot of potholes in New England in February.

  Bad Choice - 2005 GMC Envoy
  By rcelen4hp - February 16 - 7:49 pm

  I have had nothing but trouble with this SUV. The overall design is great and the features are also attractive. Mechanically the engine & power train are respectable. The electrical is a nightmare. I have had just about everything replaced in this truck. I am on the third ignition, all of the micro switches on the tranmission and theft deterrent system have been replaced! There has been a rattle under the truck that sounds like the entire suspension is about to abandon ship but dealer has not been able to correct. The gas mileage is terrible for a six and the fuel tank way too small. Always stopping for fuel.

  Strength, Power, Luxury, and Style!! - 2005 GMC Envoy
  By George Mulder - January 23 - 11:56 am

  What a great surprise! After having a Jimmy and being bored to tears by the Ford Explorer, the Envoy is such a refreshing change. Great luxury car appointments, powerful engine, good handling, and now more stylish than the Jimmy or what is available today in other SUVs. Feels and handles like a car but gives the highup ride advantages, and though I will probably never use all the capacity can tow 2,500 lbs about 2,000 pounds more than the Explorer. Fit and finish is great, the interior is very stylish, yet sporty, love the wood trim everywhere! Thanks GMC, Ill hate letting this one go at lease end! Truly the Cadillac of Midsized SUVs!!

  Envoy SLT Excellent - 2005 GMC Envoy
  By jan sankey - December 16 - 12:49 pm

  I have been driving my Envoy since August and even though it was used when I bought it, it performs and looks like a new Envoy. It is a delight to drive and the ride is fabulous. I will never buy any other brand of SUV. It is A+++

  I LOVE MY NEW ENVOY!!! - 2005 GMC Envoy
  By I LOVE MY NEW TRUCK - December 13 - 3:53 am

  This truck is just plain amazing. It just moves going uphill with the excellent 275hp engine. It accelerates ammazingly. The interior design is awesome, very roomy for my kids and the front passengers. I also love the bose system. My two teenage sons love the bass the speakers give out! Excellent exterior design as well and is great for storing cargo.
