2010 GMC Terrain

GM is on death row and this is the best vehicle they could launch?? Common where is the Chevy Cruze...

This new Terrain looks like a cube on wheels

Interior looks pretty good actually. The outside styling leaves a lot to be desired.

if this gets close to 30mpg (like it says) and is priced decently, it should sell well.

Well, even it looks like a cube it is still a nice car. But in this kind of situation I guess it is not wise to have those expensive car. GM should start making car that is more useful and affordable.

Maybe I'll be wrong, but that thing looks like a tank and even if it can be configured to get good gas mileage, I think the gas-guzzler impression it gives could sink this faster than a lead balloon. Even though gas is down in price the economy has people thinking low budget and this thing looks more Hummer than Scion XB

Actually I don't mind it, it looks good for a crossover. And GM has killed the next-generation Escalade/Tahoe which was due out for 2011/12 so they can focus on making crossovers like this.
