Chevy Traverse

Bluestreak · 05-03-2010, 08:36 AM

I've read reviews where people say they get 25-26 mpg highway and I've also read the oposite. Usually when someone complained about the mpg they didn't give any figures, they just said it was worse than they expected.

The Traverse has had 3 recalls already. Parking break and one other minor thing. Transmission recal makes me nervous but lots of people have praised the 6 speed.

these days almost every car/car company has some recall or another going on.

I have an Acadia. It's a great, comfortable car. Mine has been very reliable despite the unreliable rating CR gives it. Average gas mileage is on the 15-16mpg range. That's 90% city driving. The lease is ending on mine soon and I am turning it back in. I have the 2wd model and it isn't that great in the snow. I have 19 wheels with touring tires so that might be why.
