A mid-size crossover SUV, the 2008 Chevrolet Equinox, with trim levels LS, LT,
LTZ, and Sport, is powered by either a 3.4L 185hp V6 or a 3.6L 264hp V6. With
automatic transmissions that are smarter than most 6th graders, enjoy 5- or
6-speed technology that learns shifting patterns to accommodate various loads
and driving conditions. A tap up or a tap down is all it takes to manually
upshift or downshift.
Add a tachometer to the easy to read instrumentation and you are ready for
offroad. The interior of the SUV is accented with warm wood accents and
lusterous chrome. Safety first is played out with driver and passenger
dual-stage, and side curtain airbags. Plenty of storage is exemplified by the
waterproof storage compartment at your feet.
Transecting the grille, Equinox sports a horizontal chrome bar that incises the
space between the vertically positioned headlights. Other stylish touches are
available chrome wheels, and moonroof. With aggressive wheel well extensions and
brushed aluminum air intakes, the Equinox is a pleasurable sight to behold at
the opera or the campsite.
You feel in control driving the 2008 Equinox, with its ABS and skid prevention
system. The kids will be well-ensconced with the LATCH system securing them.
Whether you experience a flat tire, a lockout, or experience an airbag
discharge, the OnStar(2) coverage will be to the rescue. The 2008 Chevrolet
Equinox is a perfectly rational choice for families or busy commuters. |
