Used 2010 Chevrolet Equinox LTZ FWD for Sale Nationwide

I bought my 2010 Nox LTZ on the last day of the Cash for Clunkers program. I traded in a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan with 140,000 miles. I had to drive to Michigan from Alabama to find one with the features I wanted. I was originally looking for the 4 cyl version for the fuel economy, but was unable to find one in an LTZ. Also agonized over the interior color but am very satisfied now that I have settled on the Black/Light Platinum. 2010 LTZ- Loaded with everything except Chrome wheels/19” Tires, and AWD Cardinal Red 3.0 Liter V6 Jet Black/Silver Interior 18” Polished Aluminum Wheels So far the SUV has been wonderful to drive and a joy to own. I get frequent comments and questions about it and often see people checking it out when it’s parked in the parking lot of a restaurant or store. I had a 900 mile test drive coming back from Michigan and it was just a pleasure to drive. I enjoyed all the gadgets and after more than a month am still learning all the capabilities of the electronic wizardry. Some Positive Observations: All windows have express down. Usually only the driver’s window is so equipped….nice touch. The Drivers Information center located between the Tach and Speedometer gauges adds useful detail when using the NAV system. I knew I wanted to NAV system but I didn’t realize how much I would come to love and rely on it. I will never be lost again. Cup holders have a rubber insert that grips the cup making it virtually impossible for a cup of coffee to fall out of the holder. Something that was fairly common in my Caravan. I thought the Remote start would be a cool feature to have but it’s actually useful. In Alabama, the heat can be oppressive even in August/September. With a 195 foot range, I can start the car while I’m walking toward it and by the time I reach it, the AC has cooled the cabin to make it comfortable. No more getting into a oven hot car. I like that I can set a separate EQ for each favorite channel and audio source I select. The headlights are far better than any other car I’ve ever had. Distance and clarity is greatly improved. A GM car delivered with Michelin Tires instead of some cheap set of Firestone or General brand tires. Way to go GM! Some Negative Observations: Driver’s Seat Leather not pulled taught in one corner so it has a funny wrinkled look in that corner of the seat. Front headrests look great… Rear headrests appear as if headrest was wrapped in leather by an amateur or a small child. I will be taking it to the dealer for both of these issues. Pioneer 10 speaker system is good but not great. I have had cars with Bose and Infinity systems that sounded better. There is not as much bass as I expected from a system with a subwoofer. Also, the audio sounds good a low and moderate volume but seems harsh at louder volumes. Tone adjustments have not been able to improve this. Most people will not notice this and it could just be my 51 year old ears. When accelerating moderately hard, the vehicle accelerates smoothly at first but then there is a boost of energy similar to the delay you experience with a turbo charger. I don’t drive it hard very often so I am still evaluating this anomaly. Will update as I notice more.

The Equinox handles very well. It has a smooth and quiet ride. The engine, even though I have the smaller engine with FWD, gives plenty of power on the highway and up hills. I haven't had my car that long but it seems to be a lot less thirsty than my previous car. The interior of the car is roomy and the dashboard is clearly and logically laid out. I love the rear park assist and the back-up camera. The car is a lot of fun to drive but it also feels very safe. It also has On-Star which gives me added security. I would recommend this car to anyone who wants a mid-sized car with a lot of room for passengers and "stuff".

Love my new Mocha Metallic NOX. Fits tall person well. Beautiful inside & out. Great stereo/nav/rear entertainment combo. Rides smooth and quite. Better than expected city/highway mpg with 6cyl. Upgraded Headlights are a plus! Very happy with purchase.

Its still new! But so far its great! Even though it has already been hit it still looks great and runs just like new! This car is very comfortable, seat warmers are the best on the cold mornings. You can't beat the price!

This Equinox rocks! We chose the LTZ, nav and sunroof for all the amenities and he 4 cyl motor for in-town economy. So far we love the comfort, room and gas mileage - about 22 city with the motor still not broken in. We test drove everything from the Lexus to the Pilot, and think the Chevy is the right car at the right time. Chevy did their homework. If you are in the market for a SUV, test drive an Equinox.
