"The Enclave is a nice car for road trips and driving around town. Well built with a nice interior, but not real luxury and with a few weird things. For $48k, it didn't have a compass in the dash! The tild wheel doesn't tilt up far enough to see the guages (if you are tall) and the A-pillars are so big that they create such a blind spot that you have to physically move your body in the driver's seat to see around them. It's a nice vehicles with some weird attributes!"

"The enclave is very versatile--goes from few passengers to many with ease. It is quite comfortable--although the ride is not quite as sumptuous as it was in our Lucerne. One concern is mileage: it seems to require quite a bit of gasoline. On the other hand, we are quite pleased with our purchase and would recommend this car."

"The Enclave is a perfect cross between a SUV and a sedan. It is just beautiful inside and out. It is relaxing to drive because it is so quiet inside. Love my new car!"

"Can't think of one negative comment that could possibly be made. My husband, who has been driving a pick-up for the last 50 years, had pretty much taken my Buick over as his own. He says he will need to buy another one for me. We just returned from our second trip to Colorado in the last month and the car handled so well, got good mileage, was comfortable, roomy and luxurious as well as beautiful!!! I had been looking at Audi vehicles for the last two years and am so happy that I made the decision to buy American. I do love the look of the Audi but love my Enclave even more!"

"While my wife loved the car as a less expensive alternative of a car for our kids to destroy, I was excited that she wanted this car rather than the Audi A7 or BMW or other higher end luxury SUV with a 3rd row. And the kids love it as well. But what I wish I knew is that the passenger front seat has very little adjustments. So the dad sitting shotgun is the most uncomfortable person in the car. A daily reminder of why I should have spent the extra money and make sure I too enjoyed the ride."

I liked it during the 10 minute test drive

"I traded in a small sports car and 2003 SUV for a 2011 Enclave. The Enclave is a nice looking SUV and not a bad buy, but the 2003 SUV was more comfortable. The Enclave gas mileage isn't as good as I expected. I'm a petite female. The 2003 SUV driver seat had several adjustments, including raising up and down, which the Enclave will not do. The side mirror on the Enclave blocks my view. I have to lean forward and backward and look around the mirror before pulling out into traffic. My teenagers say the back seats of the Enclave are uncomfortable. They miss our old SUV. The interior storage area is divided up. Useless. Not even room for a pair of sunglasses. My other SUV had a decent size console that opened. When I bring groceries home, I have to park outside the garage to unload the rear cargo area because the rear lift gate hits the garage door when the garage door is raised. The lift gate should have a position to stop before raising that high. During enclement weather, I have to cram all my groceries into the back floor board, which is very small, so I can pull into the garage to unload. If I could have test driven the Enclave for a few days, I would have brought it back. The Enclave isn't the SUV for me. I could have spent a few thousand dollars more and purchased a much more comfortable SUV with many more conveniences; one that I would keep for several years. We're already talking about getting rid of the Enclave after only having it a few months."
