| 2012 | 4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Just like my new GMC pick-up truck, the interior is again made of cheap plastic. GM should take a page out of what Ford and Chrysler have been doing lately. I still buy GM products because it's not all about the interior. It's about the ride,security and quality that I've always had with GM products. |
