Quiet, handles like its on rails, with tech.

The 2017 Acadia Denali AWD is a fantastic vehicle, we purchased an off lease one with the adaptive cruise and 360 camera. Excellent quiet ride, well integrated infotainment package. We've driven it to our lake home round trip the past two weeks and it's the first time my wife has used cruise control and this one is adaptive. The headlight technology is very good, much better than the gen 2 CTS we drove. Handling and acceleration is excellent. My friend purchased the same vehicle a couple of weeks earlier and once we drove it, we had to have one. I only purchase a vehicle every 5 years or so and we are not impulse buyers, except in this case and it was a great decision.

So sorry I ever purchased this vehicle.

Has been in the shop going on 2 weeks now. The mechanics have had to pull the engine 2x now for timing chain issue. Was told this is "common" on the 2014 Acadia model. It has 49,000 miles on it. Don't like the "traction control" either.

Just purchased

Just purchased the Acadia, but am satisfied so far. We feel it is very comfortable and roomy. Love all the new technology! Had not looked at this type of vehicle before, but once we saw it and test drove it, we knew it was our for us!

Nice but un-refined

Very nice car we just expected refinement getting into the Denali. It has plenty of room. 310 horsepower in which is excellent for an suv. Hd towing package is more than capable. I was in impressed with the premium bose sound system being analog and not digital processed sound leaves you with expectations un met. This vehicle has no lighting in the cargo area witch is unbelievable in a vehicle upwards of 50k.

Acadia SLT2 comparable to higher priced luxury mod

Excellent quality and value for the price, the Acadia SLT2 has every bell and whistle the higher priced luxury models offer but for half the price! Superb handling, outstanding safety features, roomy seating. Great choice for those who want Mercedes options at GMC pricing.
