The I4 will break the front tires loose from a dead stop. Throttle tip in is great. It feels rather spunky around town. If AWD wasn't an absolute requirement for me, I could be perfectly happy with the I4 model. The sound is very sedate under normal conditions, but put your foot in it and you'll get an almost V6 like growl. The steering is very light at parking speeds and much tighter above that. I want to go further with the evaluation before I comment more on that. Braking is very firm. The reverse camera is great. The picture shows up on the left side of the center rear view mirror allowing you to look at either the screen or the mirror with just a very minor shift of your gaze. Pioneer audio...I'll get back to you on.

I got the window sticker up

I'll see if I can to a headlight comparison shot with the 2004 CR-V

They seem great. Leagues better than my CR-V daily driver. The fogs seem especially bright.

The 3.6 fit in the Vue... so the 5.3 should fit.

Found out that the huge raise that was promised to me back in September but never materialized will in fact show up after the first of the year... with retroactive pay back to June. Also getting a $250 Amex gift card for my 5 weeks of 70 hour weeks. I got plenty of overtime for it, but I'll take the extra $250.

I added a few more pics to the 2010 Equinox Gallery

I can ask this of my contact at GM. Just want Terrain or 'Nox too?

They are identical to the Chevrolet Equinox. They do not fold completely level, but they are flat. These are from the Equinox LTZ

Terrain I4 FWD 3867 Equinox V6 FWD 3928 LaCrosse V6 FWD 3929 So again, no the I4 Lacrosse isn't going to be a speed demon, but it'll still feel decent around town.

I don't know that the belt line is any different than the Equinox. Once you're inside, visibility seems the same.

Steering is noticeably different particularly at low speeds. Much lighter steering in parking maneuvers, at city speeds and above steering feels slightly sportier, faster to respond.
