On paper this is one impressive vehicle. 3.6L 265HP 6-spd Auto 24mpg Hwy Real AWD With the Trailblazer dead this will slot in nicely http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/News/articleId=116089#10

I hate the tail lights but other than that it looks good. What is with the center vent in the dash though?

Quote:
GM's initial strategy in marketing three different versions of the same vehicle is a bit peculiar, considering the General is in the midst of an ongoing effort to consolidate the GMC, Buick and Pontiac brands into a single retail network. Thus, Pontiac-GMC-Buick dealers conceivably will be carrying all three Lambda models, which are virtually identical under the skin but have some notable exterior styling differences.
Well they are consolidating, which is good, but 3 of the came car at the same dealer... 
It gets an overall meh from me. Pricing isn't given, but I doubt they will pull buyers away from things like the Honda Pilot.

I believe the Saturn Outlook is going to debute first. Hopefully these will help GM!
The rear reminds me of a Tourige (sp)

Yes, it is a Crossover and is a car based SUV. 3-rows of seating.
And yes GM has killed off the Trailblazer so GM needs another family sized hauler

Holy crap, I must be getting old! I like the way a Buick looks!!!!  Seriously, it's much better looking than the GMC version. The GMC's profile looks too Honda-ish/Toyota-ish.

The execution is going to be the critical aspect. Will it actually be improved enough to be competitive, or will it just be another promising GM idea that fails in the details?
Only time will tell if you're wanting to buy this over an Edge/Aviator/CX-9 and the host of othr options.

Just another gas guzzing SUV. Looks good until you get to "17mpg city 25mpg highway"
