Great comb size and spade

I wish the center console was roomier and shifter was smaller so that there was added drink holder and various room for sundries

one of the nicest cars i have owned

Compared with a lot of other cars getting smaller,this car still has plenty of leg,head and storage room. Also great ride, a very solid vehicle.

Just Love This Vehicle!

Just traded in my 2011 (which I loved too) and bought a 2017. This car is solid and the ride is comfortable, smooth and quiet. No regrets buying another Terrain.

So Far So Good

I am one month into my new GMC Terrain. After driving one for a week as a rental, I felt comfortable leasing the 2017 terrain. It has very good seating and leg room for the driver, which was important to me and plenty of cargo space. So far the mileage has been excellent, especially considering my 20 mile daily commute to work.

Practical review

This is a big change for me. Since the 70's I have driven trucks or vans with big engines. I have found this 6 cylinder AWD vehicle is very comfortable and I am actually enjoying driving it. Much to my surprise this is turning out much better than I thought it would. I would definitely recommend this car to any driver. Perfect size and vey comfortable.

Terrain

I test drove a 2017 GMC Terrain and after the drive was convinced in the comfort and manageable it drove. I was ready to purchase a Jeep but changed my mind and am now convinced to purchase a Terrain.

I test drove it, then I bought it.

Looking at the Terrain for the last year, I test drove it at Ron Hodgson and the sales rep was extremely knowledgeable. The car drives incredibly smooth and is unbelievably quiet. Our original car was an older model Bravada and we were hard-pressed to give it up as it was still in great condition. I was really impressed with my test drive, I then had my wife test drive it on our 2nd visit. She also was impressed and we bought the model we were test driving a Terrain Denali. We have now had it for a month and we are very happy with our decision buying the Terrain. We had the opportunity to take it on a road trip from Edmonton to Calgary one weekend and it performed above our expectations. Road noise at highway speed was non existent, very smooth riding and the seats are very comfortable. Again we are very happy with our decision on buying the Terrain.

Comfortable for the size.

User friendly interior. Performs well for a 4 cylinder. Comfortable for its size. Great fuel economy. Like the style. Price was part of the factor. Like the reliability and track record of GMC.
