Well, even though I have not come on this site for months, overall it's been a fun experience and I learned a lot about my Envoy. Unfortunately, my beloved Envoy Denali has gone on to trade-in heaven. I could not deal with it anymore and I sloooooowly grew to despise it. I had honestly never regretted a purchase more than that one. It was always one thing after the other. And just when I would think I'm all good, it'd be something else. My truck was truly a POS.
Eulogy:
She was born in 2007 and came into my life in 2010 (right between Christmas and New Year's). I had gotten what I wanted. I loved her although she wasn't perfect. Narrow interior, but I had enough space; lack of adequate compartments; worst placed ever backseat cup holders. But she did a lot of good too. She was a powerful beast (V8). My favorite feature was the passenger side mirror tilt when in reverse. All that truck space to lug so many things, including food and diaper pickups for work and guitar hero drums to name a couple. Loved that black leather... and the wood grain (even if it was plastic). Unfortunately, she kept having problems. Why should a car have whirring sounds? That's crazy. It would sound like Deep Rising. Fuel level sensor twice. Some other expensive thing in the front (can't remember the name; but it made my car sound like a big truck or bus moving but it would not really move). Motor in passenger side mirror went out. 4 new expensive tires (okay, i can't blame the car). Front brakes. Back brakes. Dead battery... and having to leave my car at work overnight. Getting side swiped. Heat and A/C not really working. And towards the end of our time together, totally scraped up and messed up the running board thing due to cutting in too close (because of another driver) and totally scraping it on a big stupid rock stone. I had a mechanic but still... that was a lot of money. And I never like the GMC dealership (when I would go for maintenance and oil changes); they were buttholes. Whew! I learned a hard lesson. And it doesn't matter if some of it was not the truck's fault. Too much of it was though.
I don't know if it's ok to say this on here, but to he11 with the whole GM family (sorry in advance). I tried to get out of her in May and it didn't work. 2 days ago, it worked. And I was reunited with my true love. Honda Accord.... she is a sexy, beautiful beast and I love it.
Nonetheless, this is a great sight. All of you enjoy your cars. There was one Envoy that will always be my favorite. I don't remember who it belonged to on here, but I saved the picture. It was the best looking truck ever!!
Enjoy your rides.
Peace.
