Beautiful car. Just test drove both this and the Palisades Caligraphy. Comparison points found: 1. The hidden cargo area, behind the 3rd seat, in the Palisades is all but useless. The Enclave is a real cargo space. The Palisades is just a fake cargo storage bin. 2. The front seats in the Palisades is much MUCH nicer and more comfortable than the Enclave. GM needs to up their game significantly on the inside seats. They should have a Avenir Elite model and offer an option to improve those seats. 3. The rear view mirror that doubles as a camera was amazing! The Palisades does not offer that fantastic feature. It means you can fill the car up to maximum and still be able to see behind you. Very useful if your loading the car up with stuff for a 6 day cross-country ride adventure or just moving. 4. The Enclave has a quieter cabin than the Palisades. 5. The overall storage area is better in the Enclave past what I mention in point #1. 6. My wife and I like the look of the Enclave better as well. 7. The warranty on the Palisades is MUCH better and it costs less than the Enclave Avenir w/Technology package. I'm the type that likes to get all the bells and whistles when I buy a new vehicle. Conclusion: I was going to get the Enclave until I saw a video on their 2022 model coming out around August or October 2021. They have given the front an even slicker look, the infotainment screen will be larger, and the seats on the Avenir look better and larger than current ones. I need that. I'm 6'2" and need a large seat. Thank you.
