Just picked my wife's New DD, a 2018 Equinox. Turned in a 2015 GMC Acadia which was just getting to 31,000 on a 32,500 Ultra Low Mileage Lease. The color is called Pepperdust Metallic and it has the LT option which includes a ton of nice useful goodies. So far the new 1.5 Turbo (170 hp) has decent pickup and the ride is WAY better than last years model and ultra quiet inside. Nice restyling job also. Would have loved to have gotten the 2.0 Turbo @ 250 hp, but for the wife, this fits the bill.:mrgreen:

Nice, but a vehicle that size only has a 1.4 ltr motor?

It's actually a 1.5 with 170 hp. It has better gas mileage and power than the 2017 Equinox larger 4 cylinder it replaces, because of the Turbo. It doesn't light up the tires, but for getting around, it has decent pick-up.:grampsch:
