Amazing Vehicle for the Monehy
I'm extremely impressed. This is an incredible bargain in the used car market. I had a new 2001 Lincoln LS and besides horsepower, the LS has nothing on the Envoy. The Envoy is extremely comfortable although somewhat stiffly sprung as you would expect in a 4X4. There is virtually no wind noise at highway speeds and it handles and recovers well from bumps. Accleration surprised me until I realized it has a long stroke, 4-valve-per-cylinder, DOHC inline 6, which, like an E-Type Jag, produce great torque. This car is loaded with every accessory known to man from instantaneous and average fuel consumption (including estimated miles left in the tank), power side view mirrors that can be programmed to tilt down towards the curb when you put the car in reverse, 8-way, heated power seats with lumbar support which can also be adjusted up and down, seat position and mirror adjustments can be programmed for 2 drivers, it automatically turns on the wipers when it starts to rain, dual temp control for the driver/passenger, and a Bose sound system with a 6-CD player that easily rivals an aftermarket system. It even has it's own compressor with a 22-foot hose and pressure gauge for inflating beach toys, basketballs and car tires. The metalic red paint still looks factory new and the car is tight as a drum with nary a squeak or rattle. The elegant styling by the GMC Team has a timeless look that still looks good 5 years after manufacture and seems as though it will remain that way many years in the future; I've had it just a few days and have already gotten envious looks from numerous people, male & female. This car has done a lot to shift my interest in American cars. Well done, GMC.

Best Car I've owned
I Love my ENVOY! It's the greatest vehicle I've owned so far and I've had plenty of SUV's. I've had a Lincoln Navigator, Jeep Cherokee, but none compare to the ride, smoothness, comfort, and everything else on the Envoy.

Affordable Luxury
We like the 'bells & whistles' and we found the Envoy to have more luxury features than most of the typical luxury vehicles for the money. We have had no major problems and overall very happy with our Envoy.
