GMC Acadia Is Among Best Selling Family Vehicles

The Acadia has received high praise from automotive critics and consumers alike. As have its siblings. The Traverse, which will be assembled all by itself at the former Saturn plant in Spring Hill. The Acadia has been among the most brand vehicle selling in the tough times the american public is going through right now.

These crossovers eventually will replace GM’s truck-based midsize SUVs – the Chevy TrailBlazer and GMC Envoy (already gone is the Buick Rainier, a sibling to the TrailBlazer/Envoy). The crossover vehicles are just so much more widely used then then the midsize SUV vehicles.

What’s driving sales of the crossovers, besides the fact that consumers have grown tired of the truck-style SUVs, is that they have generally better fuel economy and they offer more-refined rides and handling. That is what most of the American public is concerned about right now is the fuel economy of their vehicle.

2008 GMC Yukon Hybrid

The 2008 GMC Yukon Hybrid is said to be the next innovation in Hybrid technology. This vehicle is using the new two-mode hybrid system produced by GMC which gives this vehicle exceptional fuel mileage, yet still this vehicle is a beast the full mileage is not going to be much better.

This mammoth of a vehicle supports three rows of seating, and a 6-liter V8 engine. Although this vehicle is a hybrid car I don’t think many people are going to be smiling about the fuel economy on this one. It gets about 20 mpg, which is good for this massive vehicle, but nowadays most people just cant afford that must money for gasoline.

This vehicle sells for around $53,000 MSRP (Sticker price), in my opinion this vehicle is over priced for what the worlds economy is like right now. If the world stays like it is this vehicles are going to be a thing of the past. The gasoline price is just to high for must people to go out, and buy a gas machine like this vehicle.
