Very dependable vehicle

This suv with a v8 5.3 has plenty of tow power and still gets 20 mpg hwy. It is inexpensive to repair or maintain. 7 passenger vehicle that's not too big.

Fun car to drive

Great for bigger family's and excellent for towing my camper. Pretty good on gas and the engine always ran good even with over 200k on it

Great vehicle , gas guzzler

Loved my gmo envoy ,plenty of room for large families just it used a lot of gas. Not very well when it comes to fuel economy. Recommend if need for driving in the snowy mountains.

money pit

We purchased this SUV a year and a half ago with 103,000 miles. Since then , the fuel gauge, the rear air ride suspension, the water pump, front brakes , and now the driver side front wheel bearing has been replaced. Not a reliable vehicle for a woman. Never again will I do business with the dealership I bought this thing from nor will I purchase another GMC. They may have been good in the past, but quality is now gone from most car manufacturer s today.

Decent car

Basically nice vehicle. I have the denali bought the car used, in 2011 good thing I purchased the extended warranty. head, air compressor, mother board and few other little things have been replaced. That being said don't know if car or previous owner are to blame. Comfort inside the car is very nice just a few things I would change the seat belt location cant be adjusted im 5'9" and cuts into my neck( bought a clip that's a pain to use but works for me) and the seal on the doors don't block out the air sound when driving highway sounds like window is cracked open when its not. Get compliments on it all the time when they ride in it.Room and doesn't look like a softball mom car :)

Car has every thing I was looking for, BUt doesnt appear to have traction control like most of the other models I was looking at, But it has every thing else I was looking for in power towing ability and luxery comforts.
