So much to say here...and *none* of it good.
Looks like all of you have actually said it, so no need to rehash. The writer of the article didn't do herself (or GM) any favors, either.
Gonna be some deeeep discounts on 4 CUV / SUV lines, come August.
Ironic how the 1st-gen Traverse was so badly styled - now, I like it the most, outside of the full-size platforms.
Whoever designed the current Traverse should be given a project team to rescue the other 4, as it's the only one that would be something I'd be proud to have in my driveway.
Around here, I see a crapload of Buick Encores - another sad design. I think if I ever saw a guy driving one, I'd follow him till he parked, then point & laugh my @ss off.
And driving home today, I saw something in the general shape of an SUV wearing a blue oval that was noticeably *narrower* in the rear, top to bottom, than it was in the front - but tall like a Sprinter van. Teardrop aero taken to unnecessary extremes. Couldn't get close enough to see what it was called (besides 'craptastic')
