My dad does a lot of contracting work for GM and he's in the market for a new car. He wants to get a GM vehicle, if for nothing else, just to help out the company a little. He currently drives 2002 a Jeep Liberty, purchased new.
He wants to replace the Jeep because it was nearly totalled in an accident about two weeks after it was driven off the dealer lot (my mom was broadsided by a red-light-runner and it's never driven the same since). So tonight, he asked me what I thought of the Chevy Equinox.
I told him that the only thing I knew about it was that it was built to directly compete with the Liberty, and that it looked nice. I really don't know much more than that.
They'd probably go for an LT model, but my parents HATE leather seats, so they might step down to an LS if the LT only comes with leather. It'll definitely be an AWD model, since my dad will be driving to a GM plant in Flint three days a week this winter.
Other than that, any suggestions?
