it's priced well about the Denali Acadia..and it can be pricey to maintain
I'm probably fortunate, my wife didn't like it..

I brought one home a couple of years ago. I was going to trade our Denali XL in on it, and she drove and didn't like it..

I've also had a Buick Enclave has a rental, and thought it was a pretty nice car..
It's worth a look

GM loses 49k on every Volt sold due to R&D, that hit has to be absorbed some where down the line.

I would think those R&D dollars are spread across the entire product line at the end of the day

Cheap Volt lease offers meant to drive more customers to Chevy showrooms this summer may have pushed that loss even higher. There are some Americans paying just $5,050 to drive around for two years in a vehicle that cost as much as $89,000 to produce.

And while the loss per vehicle will shrink as more are built and sold, GM is still years away from making money on the Volt, which will soon face new competitors from Ford, Honda and others.

GM's basic problem is that "the Volt is over-engineered and over-priced," said Dennis Virag, president of the Michigan-based Automotive Consulting Group.

You might want to take a look at pathfinders. Made in TN. Really well powered and a solid ride but I've had issues with their catalytic converters

I like the Pathfinder, and they're made in my hometown, but my mother-in-law has one, and I don't want to give her the satisfaction of buying one because I'll never hear the end of "I told you should just get a pathfinder. I love mine, greatest vehicle ever."

blech. mother-in-laws.

Terrible reason to stay away from a car, I know. Oh well.

Might be a bad reason to stay away from a car but completely understandable.

Gas mileage is awful for that kind of car. Expensive to fix(if you aren't under warr.) Just not a big fan of them. Older models have had some transmission issues. Really the only thing they have going for them is the safety and the newer models have paid maintence up to 60k.

I'll make you a hell of a deal on a 1990 Honda Accord. It's the LX version, not all of the paint is faded and it's just getting broke in at 193,000 miles.
