Chevrolet has been impressive as of late. Hard to not be attracted to these. Just follow your maintenance schedule and don't abuse the drivetrain. Will be a solid form of transportation. ☮️💙

@suzanneflowers2230 15 дней назад

The key with the Chevy brand, JMO, is to offer enjoyable quality that's affordable for us middle class folks (esp in today's economy). It's always been this way with Chevy. As long as Chevy doesn't price itself out of the market, it will compete well. GM should be proud of its work on the Traverse, btw.

I would use super cruise as you did, Joe, to keep driving as I adjusted my music or AC settings. It would also give my body a little chance to stretch/relax since I have RA. It's like an extension of cruise control. GM has done impressive work here!

@oscarkristoff5350 14 дней назад

Great video, thank you. Does the Traverse have a HUD?

@fenrirslip 15 дней назад

I absolutely love this red on Chevy vehicles. It really pops in the sunlight and fits the overall shape of the Traverse to a T. 9:24 It honestly doesn't bother me that the exhausts are on one side of the Kia Telluride. It gives it more of a rugged appearance in the rear by having them do it this way. Plus, I think the reason why they have the exhausts only on the right side is so that the heat can't enter the passenger cabin. I also think it's a cool Korean design feature to have the exhaust pipes on the right side.

Joe, as a Chevy fan boy, the 2024 Traverse in my opinion is class leading inside and out and would be a grand slam if it had a hybrid option. With the new 2025 Equinox getting most likely a PHEV option I hope the 2.5 Turbo in the Traverse also gets the PHEV engine option. Joe and Lori, once again a great review!

@daynevickers1079 15 дней назад

HUGE improvement, Chevy (and about time)! I like it all except the 'reverse-shark fin' towards the back of the vehicle (but I'm sure I'd get used to it eventually). I would imagine that, with the enormous room inside on this one, not to mention the increased MPG (and lower price), it will be more likely to cannibalize sales from Chevy's own Tahoe as opposed to either the Telluride/ Palisade. Thanks for the look, Joe! You're #1 in my book!

@Bowhunters6go8xz6x 15 дней назад

This Chevy Traverse is an awesome SUV, good sporty looks outside and inside and lots of room, totally agree the red door trims and stitching looks really nice. The size is smaller than a Chevy Suburban but it still has a lot of interior room so it has the room to be a family hauler on trips and you get some bang for the buck with the under $60k price tag. Should have maybe been made as a Hybrid with the electric motor to add HP and Torque instead of having a Turbocharger.

The only thing I wish they would have done I’d make the Z71 available with ALL of the features I could get with the RS version and maybe possibly used the 2.7 turbo max engine from the Silverado instead of this 2.5 version of the same engine with considerably less torque. Overall, very impressed with what they have done. Now the only question is go with Chevy model. GMC model or the new Buick Enclave all of the same platform.

The RS has me thinking about trading in my Highlander. My Toyota's as expected have been nothing but rock-solid. I have this fear the minute I sell it, I will immediately regret and be dealing with typical GM issues. The Buick Enclave is same platform but has good reliability, I'll test drive both but actually love the RS styling even more. I don't like the Grand Highlander, but would consider the Palisade and Telluride.
