Is the ALL NEW 2020 GMC Acadia AT4 the BETTER Chevy Blazer? 

Damn everday you have 2 or 3 videos out thats what real hustle is.huge supporter here.

I have been watching several videos while I am looking for a new car. You, by far, are the best person to review a vehicle. I couldn't even finish watching some of them for trying to film and talk at the same time. Love your channel.

I just rent one yesterday that Acadia is so lovely on the outside it sounds great as suv the headlights are so good. I love ur videos joe always gives a lot of details 🙏🏾

Another Great Informative Detailed Review. Joe, I have not found a reviewer that can match your knowledge and descriptions of the vehicles you review. You are the Best! Keep it Up!

Thanks for bring this vehicle to my attention!!! I am expanding my options

Nice job I really like this one Raiti I think they did a good job and my 04 GMC Envoy XL is about due for replacement .

Man watching this I miss my 2001 GMC Jimmy. Amazing what has changed in almost 20 years technology/style wise. I would take Acadia over the Blazer.

Very nice looking GMC. GMC does an absolutely fantastic job styling their vehicles from top to bottom. Thanks Joe. ♥️🙏.

I like the AT4 look, especially in the Sierra. Push/Pull shift buttons follow the new C8, just different layout. Not a fan of the buttons or dials for a gear shifter, but the C8 shift button's actually have a nice solid, quality feel, sat in one that was at a local Chevy dealer here in Scottsdale, AZ. Sweet ride! "Naked and Afraid episode" Haha good one!

I'm digging this vehicle nice job Joe ....

Nice job on the review !! Very informative !! I do want one of these. Wish it had more ground clearance....

Very thorough review. Thank you.

Have been watching your channel for months. Can’t believe I wasn’t subscribed. Just, liked commented and subscribed 😄

Proud, until recently, owner of a last year 2009 Chevy Trailblazer...been looking for some time and happily bought an AT4 Acadia...and I love it! Test drove a 2021 Blazer and Trailblazer, doesn’t compare at all to the AT4 Acadia.

dig all your reviews Joe. i'm watching all the way from South Africa 👍

Nice video review; and I agree, they could’ve updated a few things for 46k! But, overall, a nice ride to be considered! 👍

I appreciate that you like even the negative comments, most automotive journalists ignore vehicle criticisms in the fear of automakers not paying them for press events lol

Thanks for the nice video! Did I understand you to say the ground clearance for all models of the Acadia is 8.4 inches? Also is an upgraded rear view mirror that connects to a rear camera an option on the Acadia?

congrats on 1 million subs !

Thky Nice coverage, Maybe the 2021 will have improved features and a 55,000 price tag but over all I'm very interested as my next vehicle. Well Done.

I love the color of this SUV! Good job Joe.

man you're a legend, i don't think anyone over youtube can present any car the way you do, fun, informative & straight to the main points where any buyer wish to hear about...im in between acadia AT4, mazda cx9 carbon edition & honda pilot Special Edition, which one would you recommend? i like the acadia but most of the old models consumers i know they always complain about the issues that pops out after few years with the engine, oil leakage & other issues.... i also like the mazda but i have concern on their 2.5L engine with that big weight is it reliable for a long term use? and i like the honda but our agent in my region is horrible in terms of service & his prices.... which one would you recommend the best option for me? i would really appreciate your opinion.. i need a mid-size suv that can last for a long period of time without issues if i keep it well maintained ofcourse.

Love all your car reviews compared to others. Yours is entertaining and informative. You got me on nintendo buttons lol! Question, all our cars have been GMC brand but thinking about getting the Telluride nightfall edition. Watch your reviews on that car and it's a really nice suv... What is your thoughts on that?

You are one of the best car marketer that I ever saw...

Peppy engine. That's what I wanted to hear. I'm convinced that my next SUV is going to be the Terrain AT4 or Acadia AT4.

The other trims also come with AWD if needed. The AT4 has a hill assist as extra.

Interesting question you posed. And it's clear you like the darker interior than the light two-tone one you had in the Denali. Nice rig, and it'll be heavily discounted by next year.

Bro me again. Now this i like. Very , very sharpe vehicle . Keep up the excellent reviews . Peace ✌

I have test driven several SUVs (Pilot, Traverse, Blazer, Ascent, Palisade) in the past several weeks, and by far the 2020 Acadia had the smoothest ride. I test drove the AT4 and SLT 6cyl trim levels. I haven't decided to purchase one because I am concerned about GMs reliability. I'll make a final decision, however, in a few short months.

GM needs a lesson from other automakers on how to do a proper interior.

I agree with you Joe I think it should have been the blazer and it should have had more ground clearance but just like the blazer there are not enough options for the money you are spending

Ive got a 2017 Acadia SLT and the interior is almost identical. The exterior looks beautiful, but if Im gonna get an upgraded vehicle Id prefer it to look a little more updated on the inside. Some of these 2021 vehicles look like spaceships inside.

I had a 2016 Denali. I have always been a buyer of American vehicle’s and picked on my friends, family for purchasing foreign made cars . After owning this thing (putting it lightly) I was very happy to see it go to a Toyota dealership.

I like the Acadia and been learning a lot about them lately. I would opt for the Denali though. I’m not crazy about the new shifter buttons and that sun shade is just wacky! Why GMC did you do that? Nice review Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

Dag gone you Raiti! Now I have another freakin suv to consider when trading my older Range Rover! I really like the outside of this!! Now it’s between this, the Tell or the Pal. Dag gone you to hell Raiti lol!

Hostess cupcakes and Twinkies 😂😂😂😂 you never cease to amuse me!

GM doesn't seem to really start upping the interior till 2021 from some of the other videos I have seen for the new 2021 models. GM doesn't give you all the safety features that other companies give you no matter the trim level like Toyota. GM makes you pay for every option!! Sad choice GM!!! I swapped the instrument cluster im my 19 Acadia to the Denali cluster which makes it feel like a more modern vehicle. The 3.6L has plenty of power, never had an issue with that. Good video!!!!

I can’t wait for 2021Acadia at4 ... I already told to my wife and she said NO!!!!!. happy wife happy life. 😩

Nice large and in charge 👍👍👍👍👍

I love the exterior just wish the interior was a little better

AT4, FX4, and the other packages used to actually mean more than just all terrain tires and and a couple stickers.

Well all I can say is this looks so much better in black but I'd never buy a modern GM car. Great review joe!

That gear selector is dumb! I'll pass. Keep up the great work Joe!

No, I definitely like the Blazer much better, especially in RS trim. That Camaro inspired interior adds a really sporty touch also.

I had a GMC Yukon with my Grampha

If you're alternator gives and battery dies, while in drive, how do you get it into park or neutral? Is the parking brake electric as well?

I like the 2nd row seat because it has 3-passenger capacity, while other varieties of at4 have only 2 capaicity like there's an aisle in it. Why sir? hope you answer, thanks.

Hello! Is it Possible to do a video on another GM product? Buick Enclave? Id love to see what you have to say about it...

I think any vehicle with a back moon rood should make it to where it can open as well

Missing a lot of details for me but I’ll just go check it out.

Acadia At4 vs Chevrolet traverse LT, which one you select ?

Good morning joe I you ever thought about reviewing a 2019 2020 Chevy equinox hope you view on have a good day.

This is a real nice vehicle, but you are right! This should had been the Chevy Blazer, with the 2 wheel and Awd option and higher ground clearance. Correct me if I'm wrong, but GMC always was considered the luxury truck version of the Chevrolet trucks. So I would expect the GMC version to have more luxury and bells and whistles.

amazing loved it...

When it’s in two mode is it front wheel drive or rear? And does mpg change?

Getting ready to do a Naked and afraid episodes...lol

Hey Joe, nice review like always ! The back is looking like the Ford Explorer ! The exterior is so Bad Ass but GMC really need to redesign the interior ! Comparing to the competitors this is Huge Zonk !

Are you a fool, I love the shifter's hole

If you could do a comparison between the Denali and the at4 Acadia I could use an informative video to see what my wife prefers

Lost me at the push/pull shifter. What are they thinking?

I think the blazer looks better inside and out

What's better Telluride or Acadia or Sorento or Traverse

I’ve driven the Acadia. It’s very nice and this one is better. However, everything inside feels cheap with plastic everywhere. Everything works well and the layout of controls is nice. My gripe is the materials used for the price. American cars are getting more expensive and made cheaper.

Sadly GM exteriors looks so good But when you get to the interiors I’m like damn I stare at this everyday where the hell did my money go ????

Hi Joe Raity, my name is Luis Urbieta and my question is, what will happen if there was a car manufacturer had made any mistakes while building cars? What will happen if car companies had their design written in stone, I mean perfect?

Does the AT4 have a stiffer suspension than the other trim levels? Also the Acadia and Blazer are both on the same chassis, just different sheetmetal. So technically it is a Blazer.

The car is beautiful 🤤😍 definitely my dream SUV

Is the Chevrolet version of this the blazer or the traverse? great vid joe as always

How about the GMC Terrain AT4?

ok this looks goooooooooooddddd!!!!!!!!!!!!

actually the rims are just regular ones spray painted black. Owner of a dealer ship told me

We had a 2014 Acadia SLT2, 2 2017 Acadias (1 SLE2, 1 SLT2) and just picked up 2 Acadia AT4s last week. The infotainment system doesn't seem dated to me, as our last ones were not color. MSRP standard is $42,200. With all options list was $48,660 for each. Mine have the trailering package ($650), Driver Alert II ($695), and 20" wheels ($900). The lane keep assist is weird. So are the vibrating driver seats that I can't seem to avoid when pulling into the garage. Overall, we really like these cars and my wife keeps telling me how she likes having her buns vibrated. :)

If GMC give this vehicle 2' 1/2 inches more ground clearance with the off road tires, it will be a selling magnet to complete with Jeep.

Push pull transmission buttons probably cost them so much money in potential sales... I would get a Terrain at4 if it didn’t have buttons never happening... I understand why they did it but I just can’t do it.

The infotainment system is fine

Wow didnt even know this trim existed? I'm a fan of the Arcadia, wonder why there's not a sport version and here it is. Disappointed on the wheels and grill style though.

I like the Blazer because I have no need for a third row seat. Why pay for something I will never use?

Ah darn I’m second that’s a zonk

Gotta love the ZONK!

Yes, it's better than the Blazer. But they both should be based on the Colorado chassis for what they're meant to be. I feel like it's the best possible minivan rather than a serious entry-level off-road capable sport utility vehicle, as the badge and price imply it's meant to be.

Heck yeah

So in other words this is just the same cheap Acadia in a appearance pakage with an at4 badge to look pretty, *ZONK.* GM should just make a true off road competitor to the 4runner , but I don't think that's going to happen.

i have the slt1 2019 and so happy with it powerfull engine on their class . compared to ford explorer !!!!

Driver arm rest does not slide. Phone charger affects Pacemakers, NO COAT HOOKS in the rear. Stupid pull buttons for Trans manipulation. They are Driving Lights. Fog lights are amber. Great acceleration. Terrible dash complication/layout, phone pairing, seat settings. Scary Collision avoidance ap. Denali has the all wheel drive.

I bet the new Trailblazers will be more like this lean heavy into the off road but

Even though the Blazer interior looks cheap as well, but I actually prefer the Blazer interior. It's so different from everything else but of course its like a replica of the Camaro.

Enjoy your reviews but they made the acadia too small. Rumor has it for 2024 they coming back with a full size like in 2016

I knew you was gonna zonk those fake vents lolol

People in the 3rd row are going to duke it out for that usb port 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can you please review Toyota hilux interior

Engine sounds decent for a V6. Does this Acadia have fake engine sounds played through the speakers like some other makers do?

46 k baby. 2 years it’s worth 18 k. Maybe I’m being a bit low but buy it used.

Until they get rid of the C1XX platform (blazer, traverse, acadia, enclave, xt5, xt6) and replace it with something rear wheel drive so they can put bigger engines in it, there will be 0 improvements to these. FCA and Ford both use RWD platforms for their larger Crossovers. The acadia at4 is a step in the right direction but that platform just needs to go, and mind you its rather new as is. But I will bet big money that GM will never go away from the FWD crossovers and the days of great GM SUV's besides the yukon/tahoe twins are over, and those two cost so much they are forced to be street queens. They want to call the blazer "the camaro of crossovers" but they are limited to a detuned v6 because its fwd and it can't handle the torque, like wtf chevy how much brain damage did you get during 2008? People cry about the interior but really its not that much different than a hyundai palisade which everyone claims is better than this by miles. Its pretty much down to looks and I like the rugged and simple looks of the GMC interiors vs the "Luxury" interiors of competitors.

Got one when it first came out,it’s 🔥 head turns all day lol

The outback wilderness drives much better IMO. Im picking the Wilderness up in grey .

The at4 in the Acadia is simply a trim package, Acadia are not really meant for going off-road

Bro , thinks for the like. Peace ✌

The front of the bumper is too low

That definitely should be the blazer

Gotta love that GM plastic interior. KIA and Jeep are killing them in style and design.
